Picking your brains.

Ok I've been doing some thinking and re-thinking and have decided it would probably be cheaper to use 24v drills. This does seem to throw up a problem regarding mounting them though. Are mounts readily available? Also, where do I get the blue wheels that I've seen mentioned? Finally, what would be a good chassis material? I was thinking welded steel angle for the base and weapon mounts but aluminium angle to hold the armour.

No, tried that. The motor themselves were a larger diameter than the drill kits. That and the final assembly came out at 10cm per motor - 20cm end to end. Wheel worked fine though...
