Finally got around to giving my feather some colour. It will see it´s first batlle in a few weeks.

Some more progress

The two bulkheads ending into the prongs are again 20mm thick.
The backside and the inner bulkheads are 10mm.
top and bottom are/will be 3mm.

The axe has the power to self right and can travel around 250 degrees

I like it. Looks good.

I just hope it will fall into weight. It feels underweight atm.

Even though it's 36cm wide....

Take it with you to MMM, we can weigh it there.

[Niels - Team K.a.L.M.]

Ellis will be bringing 2 beetles. So we'll be doing more than just weighing it.

I can't find you two in the MMM entry list...

[Niels - Team K.a.L.M.]

Still need to sign up... I know.


....and done.

[Niels - Team K.a.L.M.]

Yeah I know, I barely missed the balancing leads...

The whole thing will be known as Chop Suey 1.5 for it will undergo some more changes in the near future.
It heavily pulls to one side because of the weight and it stand a good chance of ending up slightly overweight at this point.
It's now 1448 grams according to my scales which has been wrong before...

Still, it's fun...
