Re: How to build good bumpers

Let's talk about on-field performance for a second. I'm getting a vibe that some people in this thread dabble (or more) in carpentry.

From match to match at competition, will the more expensive lumber be more likely, less likely, or about as likely to:
  1. Prevent internal robot damage as the cheaper stuff?
  2. Cause fewer structural integrity maintenance issues as the cheaper stuff?
  3. Cause fewer cosmetic maintenance issues as the cheaper stuff?
  4. Require different tools to deal with a different type of wood than the cheaper stuff?
  5. Be as readily available to teams who realize at competition they want to replace it or build bumper for others with it, like the cheaper stuff is?

Same questions, but comparing heavier to lighter lumbers?
