Lets inspire the community! I would like all of the teams that are going to build something similar to make major improvements to our design!

Are the arms on the lift a standard aluminum stock size? I can't seem to find much C-channel or angled aluminum that is smaller than 1" in either dimension.

Glad to see that some of the Ri3D teams arrived at similar design conclusions that our team did.

2x1 ripped down the middle of the 1 inch side.

kept it .5 in order to fit between the totes in the landfill.

That strategy is specifically why I ask. We will want to keep our arms fairly narrow for the landfill but I want more resistance to bending than a flat stock of 1/8" aluminum is going to have when we hit something hard while turning.

Thanks for the idea!
