How are you solving the problem of having the robot in 2 halves?
I started designing a robot in two halves a while back, and my only solution was to run cables through the shaft that connected them.
Look seriously impressive by the way.

I guess you mean wires from 1 pod to the other....that is hollow tube....there will be slits milled out for wires. the tube is stationary as the weapon is mounted on bearings around the tube.
Yes that is what I mean.
Looks amazing. Having rather decent facilities to manufacture the bits tho ;)
Been in my shed this afternoon welding up chassis parts. Now ready for parts to be keyed and outer bulkheads to be made. Then its wiring up and hope it works.
Really looking forward to the new year when we can see the benefits of your labour with this one mate.It looks really exciting and innovative.
Swanny, this is looking good. Looking forward to Barnsley already :)
Im assuming it will behave like big nipper?
only with 3 revolutions per second of the arm (i believe, correct me if im wrong) it will have an insane amount of power
It will be very powerful indeed. Around 140hp on the gear on the weapon. should do about 3 revolutions a second ish yes. It wont behave like big nipper but there are similarities.
