Re: Whats the Best way to do Bumpers?

Besides, don't you want a fresh look for your new robot each year?
No problem, the added flexibility of the cracked plywood compensates for the compressed noodles.

But in all seriousness, if the inside of the bumpers could slide out of the fabric, then at least the fabric could be reused for probably one extra season.
