Go to Post Polycord. It was used in all sorts of ball systems in 2009, and on some of the 2007 claws. It's not too hard to fuse together by hand with some heat and patience. - AustinSchuh [more]

Re: Vex Versachassis

I think VersaChassis looks like a compelling addition to the COTS drivetrain market. Definitely a unique solution to the placement and management of wheels on a tube.

We've been providing COTS and custom chassis solutions to teams since 2008 and we've yet to work with a team that didn't truly appreciate the time and effort saved by not re-engineering a stick with wheels every season.

Interestingly, a lot of FRC teams have plenty of cash but are extra tight on time and know-how. COTS chassis systems fit this niche really well.

The price point for VersaChassis is amazing as well...though the source of these components likely isn't domestic, for what it's worth.

Hopefully our SimpleTube Chassis will be an equally compelling option for teams looking for a COTS solution in 2014.
