MolecularMan14 Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 When I was a little younger I designed a bot that looked like a big upper case H. Basically, the longer parts of the l-l (represented by the 2 lower case l's) would have circular saws that would bring the opponent into the - (middle horizontal part of the H), which would have spikes on it. The verticle lines would then move in to rip the other bot to shreds. The wheels would have to be big enough to stick through either side, so it could run both rightside up and upside down. *Edit- Post #333 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5614 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 yes but the whole point of my idea is that you dont even need to make contact with the other robot, with your design, if the other robot had a fliper, you'd be screwed, with mine, even if the other one had a flamethrower, you'd just fry all its circuitry.... a lot simpler and easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloodhound Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Oxford Dictionary is the way to do. Cambridge would do well as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgerlica Posted September 14, 2004 Author Share Posted September 14, 2004 what do you think of my idea, at top of this page? i think it is compatable with all the rules, it would be a wicked robot. Sadly, such devices are forbidden where I do business. http://www.murconline.com/rules.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICHARDBATTY Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 The best one is a heavy spiked rotating shell with a floating floor skimming wedge protruding slightly from beneath. Any wedge will be deflected up to the spikes and be damaged. Any other attack will result in damage to the attacker. It will be heat/flame resistant.

jgerlica Posted September 20, 2004 Author Share Posted September 20, 2004 Well If people ever answered pms that might work. However, this isn't a perfect world, now is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICHARDBATTY Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Sorry I find it hard to keep track of where I post. I replied to your pm but my connection cut as I sent so just in case yes enjoy. I can't afford to get involved so its no use to me. Please tell us how you get on. Might be best to use the centrifuge clutch mech from a petrol mower to drive it. This way you avoid motor and power supply stress if someting stops it turning.
