two years ago, we used honeycomb aluminum for the base and type of honeycomb plastic for the sides, last year, we used honeycomb for to mount electronics on, and both years, it stood up to time.

we also have a 1 inch thick piece about 4*4 inches and people have been jumping on it, throwing it trying to bend since we got it at the beginning of the season and nothing, except for being a little squished in the corners, has happened to it.

we're also thinking of using a new type of honeycomb this year for our frame, but we're arent exactly sure yet
