1.25 lb's and thats my final offer.


1.5?  Bricks are heavy.

Well I just weighed my last bot for Project Y without the transfer
openings, and it came in at 2.5 lbs.

I'd be leaning toward 1.5+ myself.

Just throw an existing build on a kitchen scale and see what it weighs...

Right, I know all that.....

thats why i want to suggest the LIGHTER weight.

To artificially force a constraint to work around.

Anyone can make a heavy bot for tug of war.

Can you make a LIGHT one??

(...) I think 1.5 isn't a bad comprimise on one and two pounds. I think one is a little extreme and two may be too "fat". 1.5 may just be enough to keep people on edge. Calum (19 years ago, 3-Apr-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
