bolting it together will be interesting though, i doubt you could tap it being so thin hense u will have to make brackets and bolt it together that way
nvm ill find a way
I think 6mm Polycarbonate is good enough, provided you dont intend on taking on magmotored and astroflight powered spinners.
I dont know about taping it Gary, I aint got round to that bit yet!!!!
as armour its fine, im using it on top of my featherweight. But as a structural material I am not so sure. I have never been a huge fan since I saw what typhoon 2 did to the 30mm of polycarb on the back of hammerhead 2!
Ok well its just if i use polycarb it gets around having to borrow a welder or getting someone to
do it for me. Might stick with steel
why weld?
Was it biohazard that never used a welder? I cant remember but there was some successful american robot that bolted everything together.
Its up to yourself though
I know Biohazard used screws mainly - almost 700 of the suckers...
ok thanks
If your taking on any decent spinner 6mm Steel is a minimum for top end survival or 4mm stainless steel.
Aussie bot Cobra uses 6mm steel and has survived many battles with the Magmotor powered titanium bar spinner Jolt.
If your short on weight 5mm 5083 aluminium with a possible layer of 3mm polycarb should stand up well.
