Re: Weight for the BOM

How much any part weighs is not important once the total weight of your robot meets max weight.

The time for weights on specific parts and materials was in the planning and design stages.

The real issue is when the robot exceeds the weight limit.

REMEMBER! Drilling holes in Alum. is not a weight savings of any consequence.
