Re: first ant build diary!!!
Im not sure I should beusing scissors to cut polycarbonate out its really tough (for me). I still strongly believe this is not going to look nice when finished

Use better scissors or ask a nearby responsible adult for help.

Re: first ant build diary!!!
Well these are the best scissors in the house and im starting to get the hang of it (thought it is bloomin slow) and if worst comes to worst theres always a hack saw
which I doubt will be used.

Re: first ant build diary!!!
Well the reason why there has been some delays in the building and designing is exam revision and stuff but now its all over and im back to building
Well Titanomyrma (stupid name unless you known what its about) is definitely still a boring old block but I suppose its a first of hopefully many robots too come I already planned up a sequel once I entered a few events
but anyways why am I speaking of that when the first one isn't even built yet

Re: first ant build diary!!!
If I was to put a servo on it for a weapon where would I put it (bearing in mind it's a nano 2 kit).

Re: first ant build diary!!!
Take a look through other build diaries, should give you an idea of whereabouts to put servos for different weapons.

Re: first ant build diary!!!
