Whats so bad about wood?

Most of 95's frame this year was half inch plywood. Most of 2000's bot was also plywood. It's easy to work with, cheap, and takes hits well (dents up, but doesn't deform). Best of all, you avoid the boxy look you get from all that 80/20. Hey... looks matter! It's not perfect for everything, but expect to keep seeing wood bots scooting around.

80/20? Bah! Whats a work session with out the smell of saw dust in the air?
