Our robot's frame.
Welded and spray-painted black!

I can see my tool box.

nice frame, i assume thats aluminium?

1 inch box adamantium… We got it from logan (461 gopher)…sorry bad xmen reference…

Umm yah, its aluminium. 1 inch box. dont remeber the wall thickness.

Ghetto Fab spray painted black. I think this picture was taken after the first rope holding it up snapped and fell, cheap twine.

/me groans
is the “top and bottom” the front / back or the left/right the front/back?

Bottom = back
Top = Front.

“1 inch box adamantium… We got it from logan (461 gopher)…sorry bad xmen reference.”
Thanks Jtosh (yes a bad reference indeed!) :yikes:

as for the frame… the wall thickness is 1/16
we will be applying a clear coat soon. and we will be painting the arm and pillow blocks gold.

i read that your twine snapped…just for future reference, (i’m not sure if you have any but,) welding wire works great. and plus, you don’t get the little strings that fall off the twine in your paint.

For those of you that missed it, this is what it looked like before paint

maybe its just optical illusions, but that looks like its taller than the counter, so does that fit in the size restraints?
Nice paintjob though, hope we have time to paint up ours.

it’s sitting on a stool…

woops, didnt notice that

:o
the stool and the floor are both grey, must have slipped my eye
