Go to Post In my opinion, I wouldnt want gifts or praise from people about my help to a robotics team, all I would want is a thank you, that would make all my hard work and efforts worth while and it would prove to me that I could actually be making a difference in the students lives - Mike Schroeder [more]

Ours are made of diamond plate, we have a fully functional rack (aside from the spider legs, they're PVC instead of alluminum pipe). It's the silly bar at the top that will support the lights once we get them assembled; its edges are killer.

We haven't popped ours (?yet?), but we have yet to see what the actual robot will do to them. It would be interesting to watch a team's untested pneumatic manipulator reach down, line up with the tube, and with a simple "click" and "hiss" of the pneumatics, make a huge "POP" as the tube is subjected to the full force of the pneumatic...

Ours haven't exactly made a noise, we could only tell when they started going flat.
