Looking good Kenny. I only have one critism. You are using cast iron pillow blocks. These have a very nasty habit of shattering when you dont want them to. If you can get a local engineering company to remake them out of a block of ally.

reason for redoing to make it good
Doesnt look bad at all, I just thought that the ally blocks for the gearbox would have gone to the top of the robot for added strengh. Like the website as well but alot of the pictures are missing.
