Forum:Users' own robots

Given that we've got users who have their own robots, as well as contributors who fought on the show itself, I thought it'd be interesting to have something of a database of our own creations, see what other people have cooked up. I know people tend to put them on their own user pages, but this sort of gathers them all in one place. It doesn't matter if you've fought with it, whether you intend to, or if it's just something for fun: if you're happy to share, please feel free to add it to the list.

 * Wrongtrousers.jpgThe Wrong Trousers - The first robot I've ever built, this was made for a students-only tournament at Bristol University back in December 2018. For a first attempt I wanted something pretty simple and easy to make but not just a basic wedge- so of course I made a pair of trousers. It's not exactly the most elaborate thing but the bi-wedge worked pretty well for getting underneath opponents, and as the internals were ripped from a Shakey minibot it was quick and pretty manoeuvrable. The Wrong Trousers did take a bit of a beating, so a sequel- The Wrong Trousers 2: Safety Pants- with added armour is currently under construction for Saturday's tournament and a Bristol Bot Builders social on Sunday.
