"Dave26"]Craig, is it coming out to play at the UK champs?

Indeed, i keep switching between mm and cm, caused a big problem when building the arena but thats another story, not sure about the UK champs atm I've got stuff the day before which may make me miss it

Babeth Ah how could i get her feet wrong LOL

I really like the look of it so far, I would imagen you'll cover it in HDPE which will only make it look cooler. I'm not the best at calculations for axes and spinning devices, but I think for a feather to do any kind of damage it has to have an axe motor producing about 1hp assuming ur Speed 900/BB is on 24v then you'll hit about 1.2KW about 1.5HP so your impacts should make a lasting impression on up to 4mm mild steel I could be totally wrong

If your coming to Brentwood then I'll see you there look forward to seeing it fight

For the record my I've always wanted to build a hammer bot, Woody is as close as it gets

Really nice looking wheels. What material are they made of, and did you do it by yourself or through a company?
