Re: arena
I was going through some old pics,and found a pic of the old arena I built for Bruce back in the day...
It was only cardboard and various colour tape.It had a pneumatic flipper(mechanism from an old jumping spider toy)!
Had some good fun with it though.

Re: arena
That looks great James! Though I doubt cardboard would last very long with todays battlers

Re: arena
Actually, I did once enter a cardboard robot just to prove that point, and it made the top 16, if not the top 8, at the AWS. I'd gladly do it again!Dave, you should know that with enough duct tape it will be fine!
