Hey Swany,
just remembered why there is a dog clutch on the axe, it's two speed as well so can also be used to lift it can self right forwards with lifter and backwards with axe, cool or what!

[swanaldo]

Genius Arfa. been inspecting the engineering closer still and it really is very cool. will send pictures of the build and progress of both robots.

[arfamortis]

'course that does mean you actually need 4 motors.....................

an' it's Mortis that only uses three, forward for the axe and backerds fer the lifter.

[arfamortis]

How did I forget all that?

Oh yes, old age nuzzlin me ear.

Mablethorpe mangler.
Mablethorpe mauler.
Mablethorpe marauder.

you may note a common denominator in the way I name Mrobots.

still could be worse, could be Skeggy or Cleethorpes.

FYI (see I'm right up there with all this modern terminology dude) Mortis was originally going to be called Oedipus Illegitum, but somebody on the Mentorn crew new enough latin to work it out so we were asked to change it.


(roughly, mother f****ng b*st*rd)

LOL. We were discussing where the name mortis did come from.

I think with the team having short names for their robots we would like to keep it short.....

Might name it ARFA after its creator.
