Re: pic: 1024 Biohazard Wheel

Re: 842 Kicker On Bot
Nicely done. I like the wide kick area... I have a feeling your driver(s) will be verrry good at mechanum-spinning 90degrees to kick by the end of the season. :]

Re: pic: Air Suspension

Re: pic: New (to us) Tools for 418
These machines are a huge help. In 2008 we used our PlasmaCAM table to mock up our shooter, among other parts of our robot. It's really fast (8.4kW torch) to cut even in thicker stuff (1/8" sheet)....
