Id recommend buying some hdpe sheet to use from direct plastics, as chopping board tends to be very brittle atleast in featherweights and bigger weight classes

nothing a bit of sanding cant fix! you going with the trusty wood box or using your fancy new saw to make matching sides?
Making ally top and blade scoop thing. Ally angle sides hopefully.
Decided to do away with the plastic base plate and have a go at making the whole thing out of ally. Not sure about it, looks a bit rough lol...
i think it looks ok tbh, maybe just a little neatening up here and there. You should call it Ice-Scraper lol
Just heard on the Kinematic page that they're cancelling the Beetle competition till next year. Gonna move up to featherweight I think.
Ordered the ally this afternoon to build a featherweight.
Featherweight inspiration dried up, but fear not fight fans, things are back on track!
Sledge hammer thwack bot, 12v, need to decide on drive train but have most of the body ready to start building over Christmas ready for 2017. Top and bottom are 3mm ally, sides will be angle ally, box section or wood, depends on what I can get hold of for next to nothing. The wheels will prob be internal coming out through the top and bottom.
