Hi all, to those who are interested I have put a couple of pictures on my profile of Little Spinner in the making hopefully will be ready for UK champs. The other picture is of Big Nipper after the Barnsley meet, bloody awsome robot that Thor!

how many bits in BN ?
could be a good quiz !!

[bigflipper]

INCLUDING BOLTS

[Mouldy]

looks like your on the limitations of your lathe! bet that billet cost a fair bit aswell. How heavy and thick rimmed is the body shell going to be when finnished?

Latest pic on my profile now.

Half inch more wouldnt fit on the lathe and Graeme got the billet on ebay. Theres another 19mm height ring to go on the bottom yet. Going to be 35mm think on the bottom ring with 7mm thick top (if the weight is calculated correctly) and then pockets milled insdie the 35mm part to bring it back down to weight (5.8kg inc 4 teeth).
