hope you dont snore
nothing done on ripper, it sat in a class room all day and i kept looking at it while teaching thinking i need to do this, and i need to get that.... the list got bigger... it will do the same tomorrow in northampton, and in coventry on thursday and friday, and each night i have to take the 10 feather weight robots apart back into kit form for the next day.
One night im going to have to find some time !
John
the master will be sleeping in the arena if its flooded and that is me
More like Major Damage...
Mr Stu
Only got packing to finish now, Been down the worksho just now to do the new hardox Jaws, ground um up all shiney, then sprayed them, paint in my lungs now, *cough cough*!
beasts all ready now!! just beauty to sort now
goodbye iron awe and tanto!!
we will be kickin major damage out of the arena if we have to sleep in there :)
Jonno, I know what you mean the list just keeps growing. Still got a few bits to do, but 2 nights should be enough time.
Rushed out into the garden in between the rain and tested the weapons.
Discovered big gas leak stopping the axe returning. Took it inside made the connections again and then it started raining.
Waiting for anther gap in the clouds to see if the problems resolved.
Andy
ITS ALIVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tilly Evo is born to (party)
party as reack war on all comers .......
BRING IT ON !!!!!!!!!!
Whats with all this last minute fixing stuff, after all its not like we didnt know the event was coming. Ill just sit here and relax drinking tea.
same..but beer for me
:)
Last minute? Theres three days left yet.
Andy
Yeah, plenty of time left yet we are still all on here not rushing round the workshop grinding and welding things.
At least not yet Ed.
Ahh! Grinding, now you mention it, the axe needs to be a hammer as otherwise it gets stuck in the floor. Do ya think the neighbours would get upset if i started now??
Andy
and just 6 fights away from the title :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)
When you become a millionaire from winning lots of robot competitions, all will be forgiven. :proud:
Probably, there was a dude trying to sleep in a lorry outside our workshop and i woke him up, we wasn€™t best amused!
And another thing, theres no point worrying too much about making sure it works because in my limited experience you build it, test it, test it and test it again, put it on the van and at the other end it doesnt work!!
Andy
Ah, the gospel according to st Murphy.
It cant be any more of a panic than what happened yesterday anyway when my dad went through a water pipe with an angle grinder!
We were ok as we have a hard floor covering so it all went into the corner and dropped to the flat downstairs and into the lobby and stairs! :blush:
As my popularities not very high at the moment i think i will start now :rofl:
Andy
Well after Obsidians selfrighting test we weighed the robot in (96kg with gas) and put it in the back of my van. It will come out of the van on Friday and probably desintegrate then. :)
Which robot is Shane driving and whose driving the other one Pete?
One of our suppliers from work is a plane spotter.He spent today under an umbrella at fairford and during a call to our office he passed on the following: they are already using tractors to pull cars out of the fields!!!!!!!!!!
Jonno can i borrow Major Damage as i can see a way to cover the travelling costs:rofl:
I remember going to the grand prix at Silverstone when they were dragging cars INTO the fields with tractors so its not that bad yet.

Well at least Visibility is Very Good so you cant blame anyone if you drive down the pit!
