 Teams whose goal is to play on Einstein think about strategy differently from teams whose goal is to be selected for an alliance at a district event. - alopex_rex [more] |

Re: Wat the Hook Gon Be?
Since we had the weight luxury, we went ahead and made our hooks from 1/4 inch thick 1 & 1/4 wide steel barstock. The hooks probably weigh in, at most, about a pound a piece and have 1/8 thick sheet latex glued on to improve grip. They are mounted at the mid-section of our plow/ball grabber with two or three 1/4-20 bolts
We made it by cutting the steel with a reciprocating saw, cold forging it with a hammer, and then radiused it around a pipe. (Yes it was hard to do) |
