Won't know for a bit, not gutting the current Nyx until after Dragon Con, so I'm mostly pre-building where possible.

That's gonna look pretty awesome, I would imagine. Your bots are always pretty inspiring, Mike.

I printed a thing-



Planning to up the size a bit and print with the axe separated then pin it in so it can rotate. Gonna do up the crusher and lifter versions as well.

Maybe but not likely. The 1/5 scale version is a 5.5 hour print job not including the axe/torque clutch. Planning to print one with each weapon assembly on it. May do a few commissioned bot prints, but that's about it.

Still needs to be wired. With Maker Faire Atlanta coming up in early October I'm doing as much mechanical assembly as I can before I put in the guts so I'll have the original Nyx to run if I don't have time to finish the new one.
