WSLB is looking very good, just interested about how you turn it out, I'm guessing there is a cover to go over that ?

I can envision it now, 'Zoidberg' is in the arena, "3...2...1..ACTIVATE" *the crowd* "whoop whoop whoop whoop whoop"

I shall personally lead the wooping much to the dismay of every sane person in the room.
By "turn it out" I assume you mean turn it on, and I'll probably try and fit in a switch or link, there isn't a lid yet.

That looks awesome! Why not just call it Blue (Da Ba Dee, Da Ba Dai), which you can sing/play every time it enters the arena, much to the dismay of every sane person in the room ;)

That rules me out then, Jamie. I'll probably be leading the singing.

I fleaweighted, nothing as impressive as some of the recent ones, but they should be a bit more functional than my previous atempts.

Got the armor done, just 1mm polycarb, but that should be okayish protection. Current weight is 60g without rx, battery or flipper arm so might need to find a few grams somewhere.. maybe the incredibly important alignment nail could be changed for something lighter.
One thing is, the grip is a bit lacking, wonder whether or not to try and acquire some dycem or the like to boost its grip.
Should fit in the cube with ease. Its a tad under 75 wide and 75 long.
Cheers.
