I think its a good idea... depending on if jonno/robotslive would be able to run them in there arena's... if standard saw blades were used and all exsterior parts were wood (aka no steel brakets on the outside)

would be much more apealing to new people who want to start in the sport who dont have access to metal working tools....most blokes have wood working tools in there garage, and the materials are easy and cheap enough to pick up.
