OK. if you think that rung rotation is going to be that much of a
problem for the rest then, maybe a nail or screw is best.
Bruce, the other thing you have to decide is how many rungs the ladder
will have (15 - 16 - 17) depending on where you start the first rung.
People need to know these things so if you have some way cool mechanical
non-rcx counter you can figure out how to stop you bot.
ALSO, we once spoke about having the first 4 feet of the ladder padded
to protect falling robots. are we still doing this? what kind of
padding do we need to use?
Thanks
Chris
