5/6mm mild steel

Has been very quiet on here, but this is what's been keeping me busy:

It's a bit scary that your 5mm steel got damaged by a spinner, it's not filling me with confidence sitting here with my 2x2 based robot lol

Jamie and I have finally got around to fully R/C-ing the Dalek since I last showed my face on here, Gimson actuator on the front wheel. Can be fairly easily taken off if we ever want control from inside the machine, next step is to R/C up the water gun and voice box. Easy to do, but getting the time to do it is the difficult part when both of us are in the process of moving house away from our workshops!

Sorry, a bit blurry:


Close up of the mechanism:

Just a shame I didn't account for lateral movement of the actuator when making the mount

Got a picture from the other week. Positional feedback and a faster actuator would be more desirable but this will do for now:
