Hi could you please show a better view of the gear ratio of the drivetrain. I was wondering on how to gear 4in wheels thanks

[@evanpilkington2878]

Is the high strength axel better than a regular standoff?

[@PiRABots]

do you use any special tools to cut your high strength structure? or just a drill?

[@606X]

yep, just a hand drill

[@Leo-xu3kt]

How do you guys cut your delran so accurately do you use a laser cutter You guys are such a great team always the first team I look at for meta

[@606X]

We use a laser cutter to cut our delrin. Thanks for the kind words!

[@Unofficialbao]

Hi but can you make a tutorial on how you cut your 24t gear?

[@606X]

Hey! We sold all of our vex parts so we can’t make any more videos about vex. We used an angle grinder to shave down the teeth. Going slowly and methodically is the best way to get a good result. Best of luck!

[@mikulsaravanan]

how did you cut your gears? they are so clean

[@606X]

we used a belt sander to shave off 1/8" from either side for the plastic gears. for the halfcut 24t gears, we used an angle grinder to chop in half

[@jackg12128]

I ❤ VEXHEX 😢 gonna miss you ben

What do you use to cut your polycarb plates?

[@606X]

They’re 3D printed with multiple filaments to get the different colors

[@WIS27301FWD]

I thought nylon screws and nuts were pushed to be illegal?

[@606X]

Nylon nuts are legal. We used plastic thumbscrews (sold on vex website) and shaved the heads off of them to make legal nylon screws. Thankfully, nylon screws and nuts are legal again now

holecounting as we speak

[@bertenheimer]

For what 💀

[@gumby5068]

This bot has some really cool features… but I completely disagree with the way you are “saving weight” it feels like you went crazy saving weight in certain areas and then completely disregarded it in others. For example the hs axel brace is completely unnecessary. You also used nylon to mount your berrings and then put poly over them with steel screws to “protect them”. Just feels to me like it was a hopeless cause and most of the weight you could have saved comes from the primary geometry of your bot. Coming from someone who made an 11lb bot.

[@gumby5068]

To be clear I don’t mean this in a harmful way or anything. I still ❤ vex hex, just wanted to share my view of the building process and critiques with this robot.

[@valoryang309]

bro just be quiet and worry about your own bot💀
