Building Grab Crab - a 1.5kg Beetleweight Grab/Lift Combat Robot

Team Facebook Page:   / joesbots   parts list below How I build this beetleweight, I used a few fancy things in my local hackspace (laser cutter, bandsaw, pillar drill) and this time I tried out my friend's router, but this robot could totally be done with just hand tools, I'm just lazy and it's fun to try things. The bot had a pretty good first outing at not-UWE, round of 16, but plenty of ways to improve it! Parts below for this bot. We (Bristol Bot Builders) have a beetle build guide: http://bbb.gd/guides and recommended parts: http://bbb.gd/parts to check out if you're new :) Any questions, ask away!
