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.

Wow Jarvis is gonna be a big guy. Looks great. You are getting so close. I can't wait to see what he looks like painted.
another stop on my robot building,going on a small trip to OHIO for a week for work so can do any robot work stress stress stress but i am getting some casting stuff this friday before i leave,like white dye,moulding clay,and more casting acrylic
cant wait much much casting of my parts for omnibot
JOSH so hows your comming a long
@sam you are way better at making a riser than me , or maybe I just don't have the hang of it yet. I may have cut my two sides two short so I will need to go buy some plexi.
I could pick up the parts from tap plastics and send to you. Then we could video chat and I could walk you through and watch you do.
DO you have a heat gun? If not you can pick one up for about 20-30. You don't need an expensive one.
I am going near there tomorrow. I need dimensions. Here's how I want you to measure. on back from vac to edge. Then from edge to (see in center where the mark is, on one side you have blue tape by it.) This will make it easier to fit. Do this from middle to each corner but on side that is going to front. Leave off about 1/4". Then when you measure front, best to do this with a flexible measuring tape. To account for curve. Then add a 1/4" to each side. That's where you'll use the heat gun to bend. I could probably do that before I send to you. Then you may have to shave off a little. Easy to do with dremel. That's what I used to smooth. Where goggles and long sleeves. The acrylic gets HOT. Then the center of the front piece is heated alittle to help with the curve. I could probably prep that a bit too, so you probably wouldn't even need a heat gun.
Or you could send me the other half.
thats the same way i do my plastics,about 30 % of my work i work will all types of plastics and also very easy to also make a vacuum forming machine and plastic cutting to cut plastics with very smooth edges ,is make a chiller cutting machine ,,something like a tile cutter only the blade is fine tooth and you get the water cold,tile cutter is the perfect base,just change the blade to fine tooth SS and use lots of ice,or parts from a refrigerator vacuum forming is very easy ,made a small one at work all you need is a heater or heat the plastic up and use a vacuum (cleaner) or pump to pull the plastic in to the mold working with plastics is very easy for me
Heat guns are very very cheap at BigLots or even Lowes.
