Crate Help

[801DOC]

Saravan,

It looks like you are on the right track.

It is my understanding that you can put additional items in your crate as long as it is not over the weight limit or you will get charged.

Also, your idea about hinging the door for ease of robot removal is a good one. My team has a split design that allows us to use the crate for shelving and a workspace in the pits. It helps with uncrating and recrating since the crate stays in our pits.

You can use tiedown straps to hold your robot in place or you can use metal straps that you screw into the 2x4s. I would ensure that the bottom of your robot can take the load of your robot to minimize the possibility of damage.

I hope this helps to answer your questions. If you have any more, feel free to message me directly and I will answer them the best I can.
