Go to Post In my opinion, the hardest part of the competition is not that actual manufacture of the robot, but the design process. It is the enginners that go through the design process all the time that will have the edge in this competition, not the best machinist. - Wetzel [more]

An axle with slits for the keys?

This is my first attempt at guessing a part. Ever. Don't explode on me when/if I'm wrong, please?

So it looks like 696 isn't the only one who mills their own keyways.

You are correct. Making your own keyways isn't uncommon in the FIRST world.

And it's very handy, as this part proves. [Whatever it is] works perfectly!

And the nice part about milling your own is that you can make eevry order a custom job: like milling a 1/8" keyway in a 3/8" shaft like we did.

Hmm, that looks Awfully familliar, where have I seen that before...
Oh yeah, on our bot!
Yeah we've got a peice quite similar, only our ends are tapped instead of the center being opened for a shaft. But i'll bet it's for the same thing, so I won't say. Or at least, something similar.

I learned broaching last week. It is the coolest thing. You all should try it. I think someday I will open a broaching shop.

I would guess a shaft for a gearbox. With two keyways cut in it it could accept two gears.

I think it could be like that robot from the movie Terminator that can morph to shape.

Thats not much of a preview its like looking through the peep hole in your door except a lot smaller in diameter.

You could put a steel cable in the hole and use it like a pully mecanism to lift the robot up to the bar.
