No Joyce, YOU tell me what you need!  If you want to fit 6, I'll make it
fit!  =)

I was estimating around the diameter of 40cm just to be on the safe side.
However, it might be good to estimate less (around 36cm) just in case we
find really thick, fat foam tubing!

And just so you guys know, I have a pretty clear idea of how the robot
will look like.  The only thing I'm trying to fit in right now so that
it's structurally strong and aesthetically pleasing are the receiving
sensors.
