It would take a really long time. fillets in inside corners are no problem, but fillets of faces are difficult. You either need to be able to use a corner rounding end mill, or you have to 3d contour the surface to get the desired radius. In general avoid corner rounds on any machined parts whenever you can.
There's a balance to it all, when the engineers guide the students, and both cooperate to build a robot. There can be no better way then when both sides are in cooperation - the true spirit of FIRST. - Jim McGeehin [more]
