And as for the plywood, I guess you would call me one of the "dissers." We bent 30x30 bosch extrusion. When I say bent, I mean bent. Plywood would have had no chance in the matches we played.

You bent it??? I do not even think people who build Battlebots with this stuff had problems with it bending. The only problem my team had with this stuff is that some of the pieces got wacked out of place.

I am all in favor of ready made things like motor mounts because everyone has the same motors, and everyone is going to mount them. But I think chassis and gearboxes ready-made for teams is going too far. That is really where a lot of the design innovation comes from.

The chassis never came ready-made. In fact I did not even know there was a complete chasis. I know those two huge pieces of extrusion were for the gearboxes to be mounted but what other pieces completed it.
