Components can also be offset
from each other using 8-32
threaded standoffs; these standoffs
come in a variety of lengths and
add great versatility to the VEX
kit. These standoffs work great
for mounting components in the
VEX system as well as for creating
structural beams of great strength.
One of the key features of many VEX structural parts is their “bend-able” and “cut-able”
nature. Users can easily modify many of these structural parts into new congurations better
suited for their current needs. Flat plates can be bent into brackets. Many metal components
can be cut to custom lengths. These parts were DESIGNED to be modied.
Note: It is almost impossible to fully atten a piece once it has been bent.
