I have not built or prototyped a wooden chassis before but, I have built many of these metal ones. Plus, IMHO I don't allow that much wood on my robot. I will say the wooden chassis do look good if done proper.

There are some tricks in the bag for 2011 FLR. (That is if I am able to stay on 3181 because of employment and because of the game) You will see a never before seen chassis arrive at FLR. )
