Re: pic: The real robot - Week One work

Looks good so far...

A couple suggestions:

1) Extend the shaft of your drive pulley and put a pillow block on the other side. Even though there are two supports in the gear box, you will be putting a lot of side shearing loads onto that axle.

2) Tension: Maybe you want to have a spring loaded tensioner to make sure you have good contact with those belts at all times.

3) Once you have the kit-bot frame set to go, maybe you should weld the pieces together. I would hate to see a bolt or two come loose during the competition.

Good work!
