So if I do Wednesday, Thursday AND Friday nights, that means I win, right?

Still in Perth with the sociopath we know as Lile. Enjoy the event, i'll be getting back into building something when I return for the final event of the year.

Xblock will be fighting on my behalf.

ill see how it goes but ill probably be there to watch, i dont really want to risk the sidewinder again - the wedge is slowly crushing the casing into the pcb and the holes are all stripped the bolt the wedge on problems i dont have the $$$ to rectify at the moment anyway.

I just discovered the box of spare parts I made for Battleshed - as long as the receiver doesn't die, Scissorhands will be kicking arse.

dont make me throw together an archaic wedge again!

The event was very small compared to our usual turn-out, but there was still plenty of fun and excitement. We had Scissorhands, Flexo and Plan-G in a three way round robin:

Scissorhands V Plan-G: Win by Scissorhands

Scissorhands V Flexo: Win by Scissorhands

Plan-G V Flexo: Win by Plan-G

Melee: Win by Plan-G

Results: Scissorhands first, Plan-G second and Flexo third

We probably would have had more rounds, except Scissorhands was absolutely on fire and did rather more damage than usual, even to Flexo. Apart from the battles, we decided to replace the old steel floor with MDF and make a quick repair system with templates and a router.

sorry guys I didn't come I got Into a building rage and wouldn't leave till I got wheelie working SO its working now only took craploads longer then expected. *cough*10 hours*cough*
Now to just make it unbreakable.

That's correct, December 6th - plenty of time to finish the build. Just don't leave the final touches until the last second!

BTW: four good videos coming soon

Who leaves builds to the last minute
