You are going to need a hose on the pressure release going to a sealed tank.
This is to make sure that there isn't any hydraulic fluid that ends up on the floor.
It is good to see a hydraulic system being built.
With a carefull design you could make the frame of the robot the crusher as well. It will be interesting to see the devalopment of this bot.. _________________ It's all about the destruction.
Na it's a flat head screw sorta thing on the side of the pump,I'll try an get a picture of it when I find my phone,it's only an older type power tilt and trim pump off of a boat.
I got it at the local marine shop when they overd accros the road,$20 sounded good to me
I recently bought myself a 6Ch GWS Transmitter and now I have to go and get a reciver .
I'v decided that it's all not going to fit in a featherweight so it looks like it's going to be a lightweight.
I think I'm also going to be using my wheelchair motors aswell with a robowars IBC (fan coooooled) .
I have also started on the frame for the hydrolics and the mounts,when I manage to get my cad program working i'll draw up a picture of how its going to look .
I wanted to come and have a look at all the robots on the 4th but it dosen't look like it's going to happen (I can't wait to get my licence)
