Hi guys sorry I've been away and missed out on all the crack but back now and ready to cause trouble well no really causing trouble but the fun type of trouble so let me know if you missed me
Top of the morning to you !
Here's an idea why don't we do a work shop for roboteers I'll bring the welders I mean I'm sure there's a few skills guys would like to upgrade be it welding or electronics ....imagine a skills weekend at one of the venues .......well I think it's a good idea....
Sounds like a plan to me
Welcome back.
A workshop at a venue. Great idea in itself.
On the other hand, it means there has to be a suitable space for it.
As mentioned, a welding workshop.
What is needed except a welder and the consumables for it? Anglegrinders or files , a suitable workbench, and if a metal-workshop isn't available, spark retaining stuff, fireproof curtains and floorprotection.
Also, an event is a strange enviroment. Some teams arrive with the robot ready to go, others are still building/upgrading (I'm surprised we didn't see a van arriving with people working in the back)
No, a workshop in itself, I don't see it being mixed with an event, just the wrong time and location.
But for people interested, and as some already know, the House of Chaos is open for visitors.
I think top of the list should be a demonstration on how to fill co2 bottles correctly and safely,
there are lots of newbies unsure and trying to do this and would be safer with some instruction.
filling bottle scared the whatsits out of me :S
See it could be filling bottles or setting fire to mike you all need to know how to do it right and safely and where to hide the evidence if it goes wrong .... Between the lot of us here we should be able to help just about everyone ......in the spirit of good roboteering...what do you say brothers .....................
O and by the way how do I put a pic up as me ould avatar good lads
And when I say pics I was hoping to get the one of me that was in the robot wars mag when I was the agony aunt ......ok give me a shout when you have it
