We named our robot "Squidward" after the SpongeBob character. We used a robot base we found on YouTube, which we liked because it's small, and has 2 spots for attachments to hook into the motors.
We built a forklift from a design we found on YouTube, but we made a lot of modifications.
We added a backing to it so the gear racks didn't catch when it was moving up and down.
We had to add weight to the other side because the forklift was heavy.
We had to secure it to the robot so it didn't lean forward.
We added pegs to the forklift so we could add and remove attachments quickly.
