What is that beater actually made from too, always wondered because it actually seems pretty light considering its size...

The weapon is a single piece of milled Grade 5 Titanium.

Yeah its ti.


Base is also CF

or should be at least.

I could make a mini Conker 3 but it would look basically the same. Or should I do it anyway and we can duel it out?!

It would look cool next to the mini storm II. Do eeet

What are the dimensions of the weapon element? And who did the machining?

I don't know who did the machining but the beater on it's own is wider than Headbanger!

I believe the beater is 28cm wide

180mm wide, 75mm long 17mm thick.


Machining was done by one of the nippers, not sure who. Shane Swan organised it all. It's beautifully done.

Ellis has been busy. Pumping out some real horrorshow parts for eggy.

Dual grooved pulley.


Stripped the motor down today as with most motors replacing the shaft looks easy so I can do that no worries.

Ellis finished everything. Being sent off tomorrow morning. Will be buying some round belting and should have some spin ups soonish.

Machined the bulkheads. Not overly happy about how they came out but they should hold. Loads of meat to pocket out tho.
