Man, I wish you guys were going to Orlando. This looks like a great bot, let alone that you guys are rookies! Good look at SFR.

My team tapes our bumper noodles AND we cable tie them, then we staple fabric. Our tape is double sided too so the fabric and noodles don't shift around or sag much.

As for 5196, you guys seem really well equipped with an array of tools for a rookie team, and I can see this team consistently building great machines in the next coming years.

check the Q and A please. make sure your ties and tape are not compressing the bumpers.

We made bumpers without tape, don't worry. ^^ Those were just to see where to put the numbers on the fabric.
