Re: pic: Full Metal Jacket

Are those one piece or two different pulleys?

You don't have to worry about finding little black plastic pieces lying around the playing field any more. We're designing up a shield to go around our drive pulleys after seeing the kind of beating they took.

I got to see them in action at our practice event last week. They look pretty good in person too. Seemed to work pretty well as well

We were still running the original plastic drive pulleys (am-2234, in the Rhino kit) for that scrimmage. Impacts on the wooden defenses, esp. Rough Terrain, cause them to shatter.

Since then we have made aluminum driven pulleys to match our aluminum track pulleys; hence the photo title. We will running these against steel defenses for the first time tomorrow at Kettering.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
