Steel Frame?
Last year we found it difficult to get the aluminum 'C' channel that we wanted for our frame. This year I was thinking about using steel 'C' channel that is used in steel framing. It is available in sizes that are comparable to lumber and thicknesses from 12 to 20 Gauge (about 1/32 in to 3/32 in). In the past we have used aluminum 'C' channel with a thickness of 1/8 inch and had good success.
Has anyone used steel 'C' channel on their robot? What do you think of this idea? |
