Al is absolutely correct that scrap isn't a legal vendor because all teams do not have access to that material from "scrap".
That being said though, all they needed to do was to get a quote from McMaster for the smallest size piece that would suffince and add that cost to the BoM.
BTW, Kudos for building an inexpensive robot ... a lot of teams (including my own

) could learn form your example.
