Re: pic: 50% of Madtown Robotics Future Cart
Our cart this year sucked, it was very heavy and slow. So we're redesigning and making a new one. We are about 50 percent done in the design. The bottom going to have a ac dc electronics board so we can plug the control box and laptops into the cart and charge our batteries. We are going to take out the second layer and put pneumatic rams to raise the bot to working level. In the back there is a storage compartment for zipties, 7/16 wrenches and other things you can never find when you need them. The wheels:

Cool cart. (=
We're still using a plain garden cart which our robot fits on, the only thing we've really modified is we made a handle grip. It works, it's easily portable, and it's been faithful.
We actually designed a new fancy cart this year, but it doesn't fit through doors so well, or steer straight, and it basically weighs more than the stuff we can carry on it... it's one of the biggest jokes on the team now. Oops...
