House robot! Currently unnamed

[webby]

Yes this is a house robot, Robo challenge's old house robot now with a new home!



It will have all its original features but will have a closing claw on the scoop to grab stuff.

If anyone has any videos of it in action or any photos of the robot please pm me or share them.

Re: House robot! Currently unnamed

Havent had much time but i did a claw mock up and ive measured the size of the base for the steel.




what thickness steel would you recommend for the base and is anyone interested in this build?

Re: House robot! Currently unnamed

I think that addition of a top scoop, does a lot for it. It's much more of a house robot now.

Maybe the tracks Jonny is selling would be a good addition if you haven't already got any for it?

Thanks, i was planning just to use wheels but do you have a link for the tracks? as they would make it look much more like a house robot. *cough* Sir kill *cough*

This is the look im trying to create with the scoop/ bucket

Re: House robot! Currently unnamed

First link in the for sale thread for the tracks. Just think it'd be more like a digger if it has tracks.

I would just make a box section frame (25x25x2 something like that) what are your plans with it?

Update!
I now have some 24v wheelchair motors and i have mainly being designing, but due to school it is a very slow process!
I have now made a box section chassis and i will test fit it in the week.



Cut all the steel



all tacked together for a test fit!
