I'm a firm believer that most of the time the small improvements you make in material choice to solve problems might be better solved much of the time by a geometry change. Incrementally improving a middling design can be good, but often scrapping the middling design and taking a different approach can often be more effective.

1592 completely agrees. But material choices is the next thing down the line on a list of things that can improve the functionality and use life of subsystems on your robot.
