Re: The age old question - bumper mounting

For this year's game, our original plan was to have 1 wrap-around bumper fall into place and snap on, making a secure fit. However, the quick release system didn't end up working as the pins we ordered at the time were too short.

For simplicity's sake, we decided to use just add two pieces of L-angle aluminum to the back of the bumper, mounted such that when the bumper came down on the robot, the bumper would be resting on top of the drivetrain rails. We then used wing screws and some 8020 drop-in nuts to secure the bumper in place.
