YES! I love it :D the bouncer (as I shall now call that part) looks like a lot of fun :L

That looks utterly hilarious. XD I love that thing. I need to get building if I want to get in on this thing.

Oh, and about RR talking about me building a pokémon, I built a MW Seaking a while ago. Problem is that it's such a horrible fighter that I don't want to enter it in Craaig's tourney. Also it's a MW.

13 days until signups close :P

I'll go building right now.

And I will stop the offtopic in Jack's showcase as well. I know he's way too good aligned to be offended or even care but I must stick to the principles I enforce in the showcases, or else I will become a straw hypocrite.

O.O

My words cannot describe how awesome that is...

Naryar · « **Reply #129 on:** October 14, 2011, 03:33:32 AM »

Yes, it is really cool, and it sure as

can be described as very cool.

Now you need to skin it so it's even more awesome. Too bad you don't have the weight to make it a walker and add claws.

Or you just can cheat using invisible, ultralight, powerful burst motors and actually make it a walker.

SCREW WALKING

ALL IT NEEDS IS ONE CHEATY ARM FOR METEOR MASH

Jack Daniels · « **Reply #131 on:** October 14, 2011, 03:51:04 AM »

XD Thanks for the compliments. I hadn't thought about the possibilities of making it a walker. But, I soooooo wanted spikes on the feet, but the rule of 7 kept me at bay. I spent nearly 2 hours just trying to figure a configuration just for spikeyfeet. No luck.

I am done with this one. The chassis is a PITA to skin because I didnt keep the points straight up. so it spirals upward instead. I can't line things up very well with it set up like that.

Besides, I gotta start building a bot for Home & Away now. :D

HELL YEAH CAPS LOCK IS AWSUM

Well, it can levitate, no ? You can just then put a hovercraft on it, burst up the claws, and troll every non-flier by ripping at their tops

And by skinning, I meant skinning the components.

NFX · « **Reply #133 on:** October 14, 2011, 04:13:09 AM »

For spikyfeet, how about ME -> Extender -> DSL Bar-> Flippermaker -> Drum -> Drum -> Spikyfeet? =D You could attach the Beater Bars to the side of the flippermaker to keep the side DSL bars and Matilda Teeth on the sides. But aside from that, VERY nice looking build.

There is where the problem lies... I need an angle right off the bat so I can't start with a multiextender. Also, the first angle has to coincide with the bend in leg to achieve a 90 degree total so that the feet are flush with the ground. I thought the combo would be easy... but only came up with two components that could give me a 45/45 combo to pull it off and look good. Thanks for the suggestion :D

oh! thanks. forgot about that. It's also something I can do later and send to craiig before the tourney. I hope those DSL bars are easy to skin. ;D

I was thinking using the side AP on the extender to the side AP of the ME, and rotating it around that way.

How about a Baseplate Anchor instead of an ME, then? That would give you the 45 degrees you want, plus the capability for spikyfeet. =)

Pwnator · « **Reply #136 on:** October 14, 2011, 06:03:21 AM »

He's already using the angled anchors.

NFX · « **Reply #137 on:** October 14, 2011, 06:40:18 AM »

So he is. I didn't notice that, I thought it was another extender.

So where's the extra component in the Rule of 7 gone? BA, 60cm, Bar, Segment, Drum, Drum......he could put Matilda Teeth on the sides of the drum, couldn't he?

Naryar · « **Reply #138 on:** October 14, 2011, 06:58:04 AM »

Yes, I am also counting 6 components.

Jack Daniels · « **Reply #139 on:** October 14, 2011, 04:18:21 PM »

Oh I see where you guys are mixed up... sorry about that. I break the rule of seven when I put a DSL disc on the drum for the 4 attachment points for teeth... From there I would put 4 lightning spikes on the disc... but then the rule of 7 is surpassed. Sorry for the confusion. I could put one spike on the bottom of the drum now, but that would look ghetto.
