Thanks Mr Stu.

I have signed up as well. The cheque's in the post.

Yes, just drill and bolt. It's very secure.

I use M2 or M3 bolts. I have also tapped M2 bolts into polycarbonate with some success, but using nuts makes the join much stronger.

The sheet I bought was from Titanium Joe http://www.titaniumjoe.com/6al4v%20sheet.htm and is 0.016 in thick - 0.4mm. The postage was an absolute nightmare, something like ?40. I use tin snips to cut it. I would say it's as resistant to damage as 2 or 3mm polycarbonate, and very light. It's also very...

Thanks Mr Stu, Might I suggest 665, 675, 685, 695, 705? Andrew Hibberd and I have 665 Tom Waddell has 675 Paul Brown and I have 685 Leon Luxton and Andrew Gardner (if he's still current) have 695 No one has 705 but I could get it... Of course, I'm assuming that everyone can use Futaba crystals. Anyo...

Hi Mr Stu I'm fairly sure that we can muster at least ten antweights to attend this event. If you can offer us four frequencies (out of 32 possibles unless my calculation are out) and space for an arena then we can make *this* event a success for antweights, rather than wait for the next one. We can...

It wasn't meant to be sarcastic Ian, sorry if I caused any offence.

Interesting idea Ian. When's the last time a US robot came over here or vice versa?

Hi there, I just had a thought (and I couldn't work out which forum to put it in). Wouldn't it be nice, I thought, If I could build a robot to give all those rc machines that we have in the house a good seeing to. Unfortunately my antweights are too small to make an impression on the likes of our rc...

If I could weld, and was five thousand ponds richer, and had an easy route from the shed to the car without having to go through the house, I would have built a heavyweight.

As none of these things are the case I build antweights instead.
