if I were you, I would also take a look at the other mods like ironforge and see the differences in building styles in the showcases between them and stock. You strike me as a guy who might like a more realistic approach to building, which the stock 'meta' doesn't foster but DSL and ironforge do.

Currently I am slowly getting to grips with DSL and might have a showcase to it soon, but I will definitely have to check out ironforge.

So I've added some longer wedges, altered the chassis to make it more stable and added some razors  :dumb)... Oh and it's pink  :laughing

Do the razors hit anything? Passive defense < good offence

It still only has 4 irons.

It's not perfect, but it's way better. Those razors there arent going to help you though. If you remove the razors and shave the sides off the chassis a bit, you should be able to add more iron spikes on the disk instead.
im just waiting for meganerdbomb to come along and kick things into gear.

How do I add more spikes on to the disc?

Razors are kinda cool, make it more original but aren't really helpful design-wise.

Much improved though. Good job !

Use the disc side attachment points and round extenders.

Is there an example or a tutorial that you'd be able to direct me to? If so, thank you

no, it's literally easy as pie.

use 20cm extender on the side attachment points of the disc. then double your weapons on the discs.

With the lack of weight, I was able to add a second disc. This using the small chassis with the exposed wheels
