Re: With Fun!

For those looking for a more pragmatic answer:

My team used 80/20. Now I can't completely defend the use of this product because I myself would much prefer the use of customized sheet metal parts, but the reasoning behind its use was for its easy configurability and ability to reconfigure if necessary. So basically it saved building time, maintenance time, and was overall easy to use and assemble.
