Re: Tips for KitBot

Last year once we had the kitbot chassis all bolted together we took it out and had it welded up. Then we took the bolts out.

Not only did it result in an even more rigid chassis, but there was no chance of a loose bolt causing problems.

AND it saved a half pound or more of nuts bolts and washers. When we weighed in for competition we were 119.5lbs.

Ounce count.
