Made a nice job of that Shane. I'll need to look at getting some lights for mine 8)
I can't take all the credit though, I nicked the idea off Grant :lol:
Think I've mentioned this before (on Facebook probably) but I'd be incredibly impressed if anyone who has a table like this could rig up a cooling system to chill the empty piston chambers, thereby creating an awesome eight-can beer storage system that provides you with cold beer right at your fingertips while relaxing on the couch watching television, thus saving you exercise-inducing trips to the fridge every now and then.
Homer Simpson would love it. 8)
That table is win
Nice one Shane, what's the coffee table weigh and what does it do to the gallon?
:rofl:
Heres a video which was made by the Scottish member of Team Bud (Namely myself! :lol: )

2nd one: Jason shows the exam board his strength and technique to pass his postgraduate diploma in proctology with distinction.
Aww, does this mean no Major Damage fight? :(
Well, good luck with Thor though! Kick some Iron Arse!

sounds like you using some nice stuff for envy there, Shane !
Will do some weldinating on G5 tonight, I'll send you some pics ;)
G5........looking very good. I think you should join our team William :) dont want to be your enemy.
Swanny, I may not be on Messenger too much lately. Key word being may. So if I don't appear on too often, don't feel bad; I'm just very...preoccupied. >_>
I'd love to Shane, make me the international part or something...
the the overseas overpowered outerspace opposing robot launcher or something...
Sounds good William.
I'd like to say that I am having a very odd day :? does this place still do drinks?
you can have a drink on me Joey :)
Best post on here before it dissapears off the bottom.
Just a quick update for those interested.
Envy...thinking of a name change. New build going well.
Thor... Thor is now completley no more. about to have a complete rebuild after 18 months of hard work.
Old Envy shell will be back with full pressure flipper.
Upgrades for storm force when we get time.
Envy .... or the new name.... wont be entering the uk champs. Thor will tho.
I am taking on a new hobby in the form of rc helicopters.
No bar at riat this year but i am sure we will come up with some form of other entertainment.
My Boiler has broke.
doin rc helis hmm nice
You're welcome to the Korean name that you so like. :proud:
I'll retire Mina (or at the very least give it to you for use in v-bot tournies) if you do choose her name. I've been looking for a vapourbot to retire for a while but I like all of them, retiring is hard, lol
well there is so far that i like......
Seung Mina
V
Mars
olor
vex
thou i like the name
invidia
Some names that would connect to Thor's origins
gods
Heremod = war spirit
Seaxnet = not known
goddesses
Hnoss = treasure
Hiln= Protects
Sigyn = victorious girl friend! :shock:
Heroes
Ingeld = not known
Beowulf = so good they made a film! :mrgreen:
Just google norse gods there are loads.
†gishj¡lmr would be fun for the person on the mike and the rune would make a strong impact as a paint job.
rc helicopters are gay.
that is all.
unless you fit a paintball gun to it, that would make it godly.
Do they fly around sticking their rotors in other helicopters' charge ports?Quote:

23 hours to go :uhoh:
After a lot of thought the new Envy 2010 will after all be called Envy. i tells ya. If i changed the name would have to buy a new team jacket. The old Envy shell will be back shortly and that will be called Nemesis.
Kody do you have a render to show me yet dooooood. :)
Teambud are taking Storm Force from Liam and giving it a much needed upgrade to drive and weapons. Will be done for Scotland event.
Swanny Alex says there has already been a bot called Nemesis. :uhoh: :uhoh:
finally he listens to what we've been telling him !!
Yeah there is. It was the irish teams robot before diotior. Dont think they will mind as its an old robot which is no more anyway. Had Seung Mina as a name from one of Kodys vapourbots but i have been slapped down by jason and he wants Nemesis.
