Re: 145 + Glue =awesome?
This is pretty cool, it is always nice to see teams try new things. Exploring new ways to do things is what makes robots in FIRST better every year. Congrats to your team on trying new things and sharing them with the CD community.
We used the kit frame back in 2005, at first we kept having issues with bolts getting lose. So we reassembled it and used red loctite on all the bolts and nuts, never had a problem after that.
I am a fan of welding most of our stuff, however not all teams have too many welding capabilities and finding another method will help a lot of other teams get rid of those heavy bolts.
