Heh, didn't see it like that. I know nothing about wedges, thought you knew that ;)

What ?! You lurked enough in the wedgefag showcases, no ?

I refuse to acknowledge the existence of wedges unless I have to build one, I think they're lame :3
But yeah. Maybe it's time I worked a little on them. And stock in general.

Meh, I don't care that they're not effective. Take pathetic pop-ups and stupid 36hs outta the equation and it seems to do fine. I think it looks sexy anyway. ;p

The wedge is horrific though, doesn't even get under Emergency. Still, might enter it just because.

You can also use a rectangle chassis by putting the drive on the back of the snappers instead of using anchors (but you would have to snapper load). Then you can temporarily move the start position for the snappers so the weapons and stuff are out of the way and scoot the black forward.

I do like it, though. Gives me an idea for a heavyweight.

Already given my advice on skype :P
Yeah I'd flip the RADs, and the wedges probably suck because everything, including the weapon motors, are on them

The weapon motors are baseplate mounted :P
It's only the wedges and the plows on the snapper
