    Default Side Hanging Robots on Tower

    Are your allowed to hang from any vertical tower member like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gM6Nhdo3eeE

    Is the tower strong enough to support the weight of three robots supporting each other hanging from a single vertical member without tipping over or bending the pipe?

    There is the potential of having over 400lbs of robot cg more than 5' away from the SIDE of the tower if this is allowed, and I'm concerned the tower cannot support this.

    Smile Side Hanging Robots on Tower

    Is it possible to elevate or suspend from a vertical pole on the tower, specifically not touching a horizontal upper bar? Are the towers designed to handle a moment load from a vertical poleonly?

    Smile Elevating the robot using the vertical poles of the tower

    Providing no damages is caused by this, can a robot be elevated above the plane of the platform by grabbing/locking only onto the vertical poles of the tower and nothing else?
