Connecting 2 Perpendicular Pieces of Metal

In our robot, we have to connect many perpendicular pieces. We cannot find many pieces that can attach those 2 pieces together. We cannot cut any metal. Are there any pieces that would do this that we’re not finding?

checked those out yet?

I’ve always wondered what those were. What are they?

Can you provide an example of your concern? Perhaps a photo? Vex has an array of gussets and fasteners: https://www.vexrobotics.com/gussets.html

Take a look in the V5 clawbot build manual and you’ll see their application: https://content.vexrobotics.com/docs/V5-Clawbot-BuildInstructions.pdf

Or in a pinch, just put the two flat sides of the C-Channel together and screw them together.
