Thanks everyone for the tips about the bumpers. We're going to experiment with the twist latches and I'll let everyone know how it goes.

What do you mean by design models? Are you referring to the ethernet port specifically or robots that helped inspire this design? Also, thanks for the compliment.

We haven't done it ourselves yet, but we have seen a ton of other robots that have. If everything goes to plan this robot will have a super structure. It's going to be the base for the prototype robot for our mock game we developed last spring, PIPEFALL.
