Title: My First Robot/Battlebot
Post by: sotu on May 20, 2007, 04:41:13 AM
Check out my FIRST ROBOT on: www.tunliweb.no/sotu.htm (http://www.tunliweb.no/sotu.htm)
Its not advanced or anything so dont get ure hope up to much!  ;D

(On the page there a lot of other things u can do, example: see movies of the robot on sotu multimedia, see picture of it on sotu pictures or even draw ure own robot in a new 3D moddeling program i have made on sotu draw)

Looks great.  I like how you used a paper saw blade

That's pretty amazing man. I'm glad you got it finished in the end. Quite the organic looking bot you have there.

The application for which the robot has been designed does not fit what the robot is.

See, the saw blade is paper. The chassis is wood.

It wouldn't last five seconds in battlebots or similar.

This is, however, the only problem with a robot you constructed using minimal components. Well done again.

Like i have said before: This is not constructed to be a battlebot to fight the good robots you see on TV. A friend of me is thinking of making a battlebot himself. I will capture the battle if we are going to fight.
But i repeat: Visit www.tunliweb.no/sotu.htm (http://www.tunliweb.no/sotu.htm) there's a lot of things to do, like try my new 3D modelling program: "sotu draw"

Is your drawing application powered by Google's Sketchup program by any chance?

No, my drawing program has nothing to do with Google sketchup!
Its not really a drawing program, try it and watch the search engine on top of the page (showing what internet adress you are at) and you will see when you draw a new line your internet adress will change. This is because i have only used internet links. When you press the button you come to a new page.
check it out. I think you will find the link somewhere her at my topic..:P

Im sry for posting this on this old topic but i have tought about it a long time now, couse YES the 3D program on my page is powered by Google sketchup i actually used their 3D models!

why is there a Paper Saw? I know it is a "Battle Bot" n stuff, but is the saw just for looks? No offense or anything, but even if your friend makes a bot, there is no way that saw could cut it r do any damage at all, just wondering why you even put that on there..... But the rest of the bot is pretty sweet, does it have any sensors, or is it R/C or does it just run around? lol well anyway I like the wood framing and it seems like it would go around pretty well, good job on it :D

read the rest of the posts, he already stated the issue on the saw.

I could use a metal saw blade but my parrents don't allow it, the saw has an amazing strength and even if it paper as you say (it's plastic) it can make HUGE marks, i tried it on my remote control and it sawed away a bit of the control, it's a 6V motor with a 9V battery so i'm even pushing it further then its suppose to.
