(since somebody had to say it...)

Stop! Hammertime!

(takes a bow)

I like it--kinda reminiscent of Deadblow from back in the heyday of BattleBots.

Haha! It's so cute! Smash smash aww!

Very cool, i'm just not sure if it has the kind of force needed for a BattleVex (if such a thing existed). BUt i like the speed at which it pounds. And a very good project with a Vex kit, especially for getting used to it.

Looks like a perfect device for scaring the cats

That's what I use my Vex Kit for... I also pick up little tetras 166 made as trophies for the mini-competition we ran last year.

Thanks for the idea!

Three cats at my house better watch out.

Looks more like a shovel wheel mining machine than a BattleBot to me... Speaking of BattleVex it'd be an interesting side game at an off season event. The main rule would be, no making a robot inoperable. The goal would be to incapacitate all your opponents. (eg. flipping, pushing into pits in the field, lifting off the ground, so on) Now that'd be an interesting game!
