Damn the Financial Crisis!

Would be rushing to make it, and probably be a waste of a few hundred $ to turn up with the wedge or a rushed meltybrain again.

I need some good drive mounts.. so if i manage to somehow get some material and make some ill be there.. or i could go with the dodgy ones but i don't see them lasting 2 days of fighting..

i should have two bots done, rambot defnitely minus severe breakage of everything and new rapture is slowly starting out, should come together fairly quickly once i work out how to build it

soo yeah, hopefully two robots from me and will drag Jacky and friends out to act as a second team with rambot and such.

nice, got a few numbers then, chris when he pipes up will prob bring two so thats about 10 locally already.

plus gary's small army so should be a nice turnout

damn right. ill hear none of this 'omg the end is nigh' business!

tru that

i will have two done for this event hopefully not night before and a garage full of parts for other designs i wanna do plus a workplace full of nutcase mechanically minded people with epic beards who r interested and a large group of friends who r interested so as long as i can build some descent machines then there will be plenty of people to drive em

Will try and drag one or two from work to battleshed, will see what happens.

Man i wish i could steal a wheelchair from work, large nobby wheels, 10km/h and massive brushless gearmotors and 4 pole drives depending, on which model. Pitty the chairs there on r minimum 12 000 to 20 000 plus each

SoI could do a 1 for 1 swap deal with Scissorhands?

lol @ epic beards

No net atm. Like Jaemus said, robots all good. Got ANnuAL Leave week before, so definitely will have bot. Possibly two, but don't tell Jaemus I said that....
