Re: AWS 50- Date TBC- Camberley, Surrey

After the availability of the location is known, we could use Doodle ( http://doodle.com/en_GB/ ) to find the best weekend for most people. If people entered their username and ticked the best weekend, we'd quickly see which is best for most. You can set it to not require a login, to save people hav...

Re: AWS 49 - Coventry - April 30th 2016

Likewise to the above comments, we had a great time. Kids loved it, and everyone was very warm and welcoming again. I was very disappointed the night before, having not managed to make Slap Dragon 'slap', besides the fact of a slight 'control' problem (let's call it :-? ) I was particularly impresse...

Re: AWS 49 - Coventry - April 30th 2016

Just about to sign up. Can I just clarify - we have 4 robots in total (rollers), but I can only enter 3 of them for the team, is that right? If I want to run the other one, do I need to put that under a separate team name? One more thing, I take it it's better to sign up anyway with one of my (curre...

Re: Peter Wallers Robot Ramblings

Interesting Peter, I've been having trouble with lifting corners. I didn't know whether it was that the bed temp was too high, or too low. I may try some of that. Do you need to clean it off the spray with something when you finished the print?

Simple 2 wheeled pusher that works upside down too!

Doesn't need to be metal.

What do you think?
