Wow it's been a month since my last update.
What's happened? Well quite a bit.

Sourcing some hardox 3.2 mm is difficult, and my supplier can only get 6mm so that's out of e question.
Found some nice plate that will do for now tho, so just need to add braces to mount these on.
The chassis is now bolted together using some wood screw inserts.
New motor mounts made for the drive motors.
Wiring has been 50% completed and still not made the ax or motor mount for he axe.
What I did do tho is find my linear actuator which just so happens fits in the slot for the axe mech, so I could in theory have a lifter...

Pics to come
