Okay so I guess I should do an update seeming as I've not done that in a while, haha.
So, the general consensus me and my friend is going at here, is that we're going to make Ratatoskr a little bigger. Which means redoing all of the HDPE... And although that's not the end of the world, it could be a lot better.
And we're going to go with rounded numbers, so to speak... so lengthwise, it's going to be 60 cm long, widthwise'll be 50 cm wide, and heightwise'll be 40 cm tall. Not only will that be much better to try and organise, I can also try to get it cut out by the people of DirectPlastics... if I contact them, considering it all haha. They don't do complex shapes, but if I just ask them to do the rectangular shapes, and I cut out the necessary angles out, then it'll be all hunky dory.
As for what's going to happen with the other pieces? Weeeeell, they're more than likely going to be reused for other projects. And the baseplate can be used as a testing bench, so to speak.
And now I have a working area outside too! Which means Ratatoskr's been moved into that space... which is all the way down the other end of the sodding garden haha. Oh well, least I have the space to work indoors now... as long as I don't get HDPE dust in my mom's dying equipment.
