Battle ready Heavyweight - Hammer Time FORSALE

Need some funds after the recent misshap with the trucks.

Its been sititng in my storage shed for most of the year, and i dont see me using it in the near future so i've decided to see if it can go to a good home and get some use.

Hammertime - Formerly known as Corkscrew from series 7.

Aliminum custom built chassis.
2 x bosch motors via chains 4 wheel drive very clever design.
3 x good condition 24v nicads
Sidewinder speed controller
Electric hammer powered by 2 Albright powerful contactors, perm motor, and custom built gearbox / clutch / axe mechansim. ( designed by john reid ). Was previously in Thor.

last time used in the middle east where it ran for 7 days without any hicup's. Complete and reayd to battle for 2010.

Offers welcome, reserve price in mind.

It will be for sale for 7 days only, if there is no interest then i will reserect it, or strip it for the parts for another project i have in mind. Im just testing the water.

Damn, Jonno, I'd have it if I wasn't currently out of work. I love that robot.

if my family had the money, i would have everyones arm off for it

but we dont :(

i thinking some like dave moulds or calum jones (tell me if the surname is wrong :rofl: ) will claim it :mrgreen:

good luck to who gets it :mrgreen:

lol unfortunatly i've spent too much of my vast wealth on buying an aston-martin car recently, so im afraid not

but seriously, i've already got my heavy weight build on the go, would be too much to buy another heavyweight, dnt think 2 heavys would fit in a 6-8 shed anyway:P

be nice if it got bought by someone though and used, instead of being stripped for parts.

..And i dont really do heavyweights anymore, to easy :)

Hey,

I'm interested and I've sent you an email. I'll see how much I have after Christmas (if you can wait that long)

George@TeamZog

johnnos on holiday but a price is about £700 all in working

That is WELL cheap considering all the parts !

sidewinder, bosches, perm, john-reid designed axe thingy

it is :)

Thanks for keeping things ticking over there while I'm over here in new York :-)

I'd definately go for that if I was working! Damn, blast and other more-offensive swears!

Am I the only one who has the money for it here? :roll:

Offer of around £500 (if you can keep it until after Christmas Jonno)

George@TeamZog

well.... get in touch in the new year.

I actually only put it on for a week to see if anyone was interested, there quite a few offers and lots of interest but noone finalised a deal.

It may be still around.

Some photos especially of the axe mechanism would be cool... Is the motor the big PMG 132?

Thanks! That machine looks cool... it would be nice to see a shot of the axe mechanism though. You didn't answer my question about the axe motor... is it the big Perm PMG132 or the smaller 080?

I would say its probably the smaller one, but i may be wrong !

Next time im at my storage unti, ill take a few photos.

But the axe mechansim is basically...

Perm to gearbox via chain..
3 stage gear reduction in a custom built gearbox
Into a big adjustable clutch
Up to the top axe drive sproket
The hammer is the welded to the drive sproket

Hope this helps

Jonno, what would the speed controller be? Wotty? Sabretooth? Custom-made?

Oh. Woops.

Nick, I don't know if the layout of the gearbox has changed since it went from Thor to Hammertime, but here is a close-up picture I took of it from Thor days. The only problem is that the hammer arm blocks a bit of it :lame:

Yep .... Excactly the same layout :-)

it just fitted into the robot.

can i just say the mech alone cost over £600 to build. Its a perm 080 and is plenty powerful enough. It works on a clutch so the motor wont burn out under stall. It worked well in Thor and is built very well. John Reid did infact help with the design but it is Jasons brainchild.

Hammertime now sold and going to a nice new home in January.

John

Shame it wasn't me. Who to though?

George@TeamZog

Oh please don't say Team Hydra :rofl:

Nah, they've bought enough already...

George@TeamZog

well, it went to two teams, who baught it together.

Both have had the parts they wanted, and you will see them at Barnsley !!

Regards

John

Ahh, I know who it was. lol

btw dave, i dont belive i have your msn :P you couldnt pm it to me could you? (or add me my msn is the same as my email address jackthekat@homail.co.uk)
