Nice work mate.
it doesn't look as good as it did before but at least it works
OK so I've scraped the first plastic scruffy and used the bit to build scruffy 4X4 so far it has a 3mm thick base and 8mm thick sides, at the moment cant decide what to do with the front i was originally going to weld a bit of 8mm across the front and put some spikes and attachable bits to allow it to get under opponents a bit but i could weld 2 bit of 30x3 flat bar across the front(to reinforce it and have something to boy to) and make interchangeable front ends eg wedge, scoop ......
so if anyone's got any ideas
8mm steel ? Thats going to weigh a freakin' ton :P
I've calculated it in and it came to less than 13kg and i'm only using it for the front, back and sides the base is 3mm steel and the lid will be 5mm ali
