Welding Minibot Frame

[2011FRC2035]

Hello,
Are we allowed to weld the frame of the mini bot? Section 4, R92 states the materials we are allowed, however it has no mention to welding the Frame or any other component in reference to the mini bot.

Any advice in this field would be much appreciated.

Sincerely,
Team 2035

Hello,
Are we allowed to weld mini bot components together( IE the frame) or do we have to use nuts and bolts?

Under rule R92 in the Minibot section of the manual, bullet H states that only aluminum can only be used if it is fabricated from its raw state. Our question is if aluminum rod should be under this section in addition to the other forms stated, such as angle, bar and sheet.

Yes, per Team Update 7, aluminum welding rod is allowed.
