Re: pic: Team 2502 Chassis Teaser
80-20 can be a fine material to use for a frame
so can many other things... One of the neatest things in FIRST is that there is no ONE RIGHT WAY to do anything!! My own experience with 80-20 was from my own mistakes early on... I didn't make sure everything was always tight.... or use lock tite on the connections... When my old team started using 80 20 by bolting through and making our own brackets we had much better success... I really like the comments I am hearing about using steel tube... I think we will investigate that next year.... sounds like an interesting solution.... thinner steel vs thicker aluminum Ease of welding.. vs difficult welding... Worth looking at.... it must work.... thousands of bicycles and cars use it thanks for the great suggestions... Your 80-20 frame looks pretty cool!!! good luck and we will see you on the field!!
