Haha yeah I'm not really the most rushed of people. Originally I was part of a small team that got bored and left me to it lol so I'm having to learn how to make everything as I go. I started 2013 afresh with a 12 month deadline to get a robot running and ready to compete in 2014. I've not been able to get over how expensive it is! Hence building from scrap parts.

Originally the wheel was going to be a rammer with some spikes and a roll over bar. But I've been developing a Wiper-Motor powered hammer that is powerful enough to roll the 'bot back onto it's wheels if turned over. It's taking a while to get it running right so it's a bit touch and go with the hammer idea.

I'm definitely open to weapon suggestions if you have any or would like to see something specific on the robot!
