Thanks alot.Instead of a srimech,I thought that I would let the disk come in contact with the floor,if it ends up the wrong way up.That way,it MIGHT self right???!!!! Either that or it will shoot straight out of the arena and slam into the wall!! Either one should be fun to watch!! :D

At this rate I might start to have to fit armour to my robots.
I must say the standard of engineering is improving by the day and some really brilliant looking machines are emerging. :(

Before you criticize another person, first walk a mile in their shoes. Then, when you critisize them, you'll be a mile away and have their shoes.

One thing to consider though, are the owners of the arena going to thank you?
