i might just go with the one from giantcod instead, looks decent enough untill i can afford something better.
done a bit of research on the axe, and a guide said to buy this chain/sprocket set:

what i was wondering is if i can use one of the scooter motors that i bought for the robot drive but decided it was too complicated. the problem with them is that it doesnt have the sprocket for the chain on the motor, would i be able to buy a sprocket and attach it to my motor, to save me buying the one the guide told me to?

here is the motor the guide told me to get: http://secure.oatleyelectronics.com//pr ... 2cefc40094

im also hoping to get a welder for my birthday as well as the transmitter (i want a cheap transmitter so i can buy a decent welder), so once im done with the wooden test frame il start with a metal frame.
