So i finally got round to that sawblade-bot that scourge gave me the idea for:

inb4KLONE
I like how i always seem to have more weight than the mega efficient builders, i should probably have used that on covering the flipper segment as that is rather exposed atm.

i might downgrade the top skirts and put a shell panel on so atleast it has something to protect it.

Don't those flipper segments and skirts kill the wedge?  In my experience, using wedges for armor attachment reduces their wedginess.
 
If you could figure out another way to attach that armor, the bot would be great.

I have an idea for the armour now that i think about it.

gonna put them on later if it all works out, should have more hp for the armour aswell (angled skirts :D)
I think this is the trov glitched one aswell.

yay


Top left: Update to the sawbot, more armour and better wedges. Thanks click, didn't know that would've affected it that much.
Top right: A fail hammer i built, waaaaay too unstable to be good enough.
Bottom: IRL spinner i made within a few minutes, it seems good enough. TWMR powering it with slim drive and 4 ants. Tite 1. I need to make the chassis bigger so the wheels fit inside it though.

Try curving the hammer a bit.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

That isn't the problem, it needs more stability. I can try a sheet at the back but that probably wont help it too much. It just falls over whenever it fires the hammer :c
Doesn't like turning either.

Would a single wedge work better than the pair you have now? I'm imagining their springiness is kicking your bot up when it fires. But a skirt at the back would definitely help, in my view. And curving the hammer slightly as well. Possibly a wider wheelbase.

A single wedge might work but i would be outwedged quite a lot...
I'll go do some stuff later, for now i built another HW:

The lds teeth hardly came off when it fought wheel of misfortune to my surprise.
Steel 1, loads of popup protection, prefectly stable until it has a massive hit or turns very sharply. Can easily get massive hits (which is good and bad, once it starts bumbling about it usually stays on it's side for a while or self-rights).

It does indeed. How does it fare against popups or anything with a wedge? I'm curious as to whether the weapons can attack wedges.

Looking excellent. I built something similar a while back, but this is a lot better. It looks like you have AGOD on the right wheel in the back shot, though.

Almost a carbon copy of what was in my mind when you explained this to me on skype, beautiful build.

The only this I couldn't grasp was how you'd make it angled like you said; this is much simpler than what I had in mind :gawe:

Pop-ups have yet to get to the chassis :P The weapons usually hit the weapons or whatever leads them up to the weapons, usually the chassis.
Sometimes they might flip it over and score the odd hit, steel 1 saves it from the ohko from what i've tested.

Do I? I can't really tell...

This is not IRL, the spinner visibly passes thru the wheels. You need more chassis space to make it look like a ring spinner.

im pretty  sure pwnator has something that looks just like that, even with the skirt on the back.

It bares a resemblance, but I think Pwn used irons.

It wasn't meant to be a clone, i swear  :p no honestly

But his used less weapons, was a bit less stable and mine has less extenders :P
