The Honey Badger is now utterly disassembled as the Nylon 6 HS crossmembers have arrived for the 2.1 refit. I've found a massive chunk missing/pressed out in the base plate which won't have helped with the robot moving and practically every screw/bolt is bent or warped in some way. I must confess, I've never worked with Nylon before, I guess it'll be a case of drilling slowly & cooling?

The wooden crossmembers are cracked in every which way and probably will not last much longer. However, since I've got the crossmembers cut practically to length by the suppliers, the motor mounts will be the first thing I'll work on. The base plate/side panels will need sanding down to remove any damage to them.
The electrics are in good shape all things considering. The motors may want cleaning up a touch but there is otherwise nothing to do to them.
