CuriousGeorge is an unknown quantity at this point
quick question to all about why using KOP metal.

i dont really understand as to why i see most teams use the KOP metal to make a robot.. its not very reliable/strong and u cant make a very strong structural frame (i have seen some KOP bots bend)

now in my exp. i have seen robots break KOP robots to the point of rebuilding.

why not just buy stock and weld?

i noticed some robots who weld never tend to have structural damage and have a really strong frame not held together by bolts and nuts.

so.. why are YOU using it? easy to put together? no money? explain..

im just curious, im not trying to make fun of anyone.. i just see and ask.
