Thirded!

397's robot was built using mostly 1 inch aluminum that we bent by hand. The only complex parts were the winch for raising our ball knocking device and the mounts for our cylinders. (We did them on a mill but I am pretty sure you could do them using a hand drill and a band saw if need be)

My suggestion would be to make sure your students can use the equipment safely and design knowing what you have to work with.
