How about a quick Build Day next week to keep the enthusiasm up? I have to go out to PnP and to pick tools up from Jeff's anyway and I can drop off the various bits sold / lent to people. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

I can go, but I can't get driven. Perhaps I could meet you or lindsay at Artarmon in the morning? _________________ ( •_•)

Well one week later isn't a problem for me either. Technically its better, as I won't be finishing work at midnight on Friday.
Also means a bit more time to get some bots up and running. I would have been fine for this satruday, but next is still good.

Just wondering, I might either be getting grassy over to get his bot done, or coming to this build day. Not sure which to do, I'm pretty much done, just need to drill the Ti, which should be done tomorrow (aethletics carnival = Ik) _________________ ( •_•)

So, am I expecting visitors this Sat? Cool by me, I can get the yard cleaned up and maybe even some building done.
The Penrith rc boat club is having a big comp on this weekend. I am hoping to get up there on Sunday for a look.

That's great, I will try to pop over with a box of parts for the other guys and I will pick up all my stuff from the arena repair day. With a bit of luck, I will give Jolt a quick test run against the tyre. I won't be able to stay too long as I really need to get some car parts from PnP. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

Good to hear the quality drills worked out so well . Just shows how bad the cheapo Chinese drills really are...
Today seemed to be a no-show for everyone. I went out to PnP and on to Jeff's; even Jeff was out! No real problem, I mainly wanted to pick up all the stuff I left from the repair job. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

I will be there and it sounds like Chris will be bringing his new spinner and another bot as well. I imagine Prong will knock up something funky and the usual crew will be out in force.
