Thanks for the comments!

Zyik, it does look very fragile in the picture, but all superstructure tubing is actually 1" OD 1/16 wall tubing. We ran the unpainted robot in the practice at Munice this past sunday, so far the robot has accidentally gotten hung up on the rack (after our robot got sped up by being pushed by another from behind) and the arm succeeded in lifting the whole front of the robot off the ground, then moving the whole robot back down onto it's tires... it's surprisingly strong.

We have succeeded in bending the crossbar for the front once, but we've found we can bend it back quickly using three metal blocks and a big C clamp. Works nicely.

We are, nonetheless, bringing two pair of extra arms (they are symmetrical).
