Re: Winch ratchet and paw design

We managed to get away with 3D printing our ratchets this year. As it turns out, 3D printed parts work great when there's something weaker to give in. We had no issues with 1/8th in Polycarbonate ratchets until the final match of our 2nd regional, but the issues managed to follow us all the way to a post-season demonstration.

Sorry about those delays between Einstein matches.
