Looks neat - reminds me of a cross between TMHWK and Mortis. What thickness of HDPE are you planning on using?

Looks tidier than my featherweight 5mm is fairly thin mind - The Honey Badger 2.x has 10mm HDPE all around and after encountering Shrekt (a vertical spinner), there are some serious gouges in the panels so if you can thicken it up, it can only be better protection.

the 5mm HDPE is the top and the angled side, the front plow should be 4/5mm HARDOX
Nice bronze bushings.
Quick update, work colleague got a 3d printer "for his kid" and offered to print us a new battery box.

It is only 4mm PLA, so it isn't the strongest thing in the world, but I have heard that it possible to "heat treat" it to improve the layer bonding which improve the strength (by a lot apparently).
Also in the progress of ordering the Hardox armour and hammer from K-cut.
I might get this bot done before the end of this century. =P

yay HARDOX is on its way
That wedge plate looks awesome. Is it welded together at the sides?

Looks folded to me. Has the tell tale cutouts on the ends of the bend lines.
