I am a junior, and four of us (all juniors) spent Thursday in one of our basements. There, we built a wood mockup of the frame (we are waiting on our 80/20) and built motor mounts and pneumatic mounts and assembled our pneumatic system and laid everything out.
For the record, our robot's frame and arms will be 80/20, and some of the boards inside will be sheetmetal or aluminum, but lots of it (motor mounts for the CIMs, pneumatic mounts, etc.) will be wood.
And some of that wood has been decorated by some of my teammates (while I wasn't looking) so if you look at our CIM mounts you will be able to see the words 'Death Machine' and little crudely drawn monsters.
I think It is great. I love wood.
Ooo, and we have this nice luon peice of wood for mounting our electronics too, its nice.
