This project has evolved some , the basic rundown is I'm modding two Omnibots , one a regular the other a larger 2000 model. I will have two ezb kits , rad base idea was thrown out because of so much noise but could go back on the table if the omnibot drivetrain is too weak to pull it.

Ok so I mixed one cup about 12 ounces of fiberglass and started brushing it in , I was not fast enough and the resin hardened before I could finish the back. The front and sides are great however. Boat resin is cheaper and you can buy in large quantities but its simply not as strong as epoxy resin in my opinion. I didn't want to blow 30 bucks just on resin so I cheaped out for once. If I need to add a third layer later its no big deal.
Ok 3 layers of.glass accross the corners , front and back. I'm not waiting for.it to fully cure about 30 more minutes to a hour depending on.humidity. I'm thinking about doing a 3rd layer in a specific place on.the sides for airflow. 80mm fans are ideal here
Now that the base is reinforced its time to make the 7 inch torso riser. I will.try to follow sams example and techniques. I have 4 sheets of plastic already 7 inches tall. I will post pics when I get started. I'm trying to think how these things will screw together.
What do you want to screw together?
The base ext we just made must screw to the top of the base and the 7 inch riser must screw to the top of the base and bottom of the torso , plus it still needs to be accessible , so I need to make a door or something I guess. First thing o though of was the back come off but the vacuum is in the way. So maybe removable side panels , ideas appreciated .) Sam -Tommorow I'm drawing out your wiring with fuses in place and charging adapter.
i guess a few months be before the paint job stress stress stress
No all I need is to finish torso riser , cut a hole for power head , and sand the bondo on torso and vacuum.
Wow josh you are getting close. I have an idea. Ill experiment first then let you know.
