Andy Mark Toughbox - Warping Plexiglass

Just a bit of advice to any and all teams using this year's Toughbox from the kit.

Make extra sure you don't over-tighten the four bolts that bind the box together. It's really easy to bend the plexiglass plate. A couple younger members already permanently warped ours. Although, I'm kinda glad they did, because if they warp that easily, I'd rather not have them on the robot.

We're going to have some identical plates made out of aluminum. I'm sure many teams have already realized this, but I figured I'd bring it up anyway.
