Team Riptide: Hardwired and other builds

Wodge looks a bit like the Trilobite stuff from the states

Hardwired 3

Sorta writing this in anticipation of getting accepted for the upcoming Insomnia event (which I think is doubtful at best) but I've finally taken the plunge to build a robot that isn't made of wood and hopefully isn't total crap.

Initial plan was once again (just like Overdrive) 'Hardwired 2 with a disc' but as time's gone on I've done similar to Overdrive and gone for a new chassis, all watercut out of hardox and goes together with M6 threaded bar and Saturn 16s from Ranglebox (/ad)



It's basically Also Riptoff built similarly to how Tormenta 3 and Pulsar have been designed - the weld-less design is extremely useful for someone like me with no welder or really many tools. Means it's a very quick fit together which I'll be needing!

Will update more when (if) the build goes ahead in the next few weeks ahead of the event. Still more to do on the cad but it's not gonna change a whole lot beyond that image id imagine, visually!
