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.

That's a lot of cutting Josh - have fun!
Yeah it is a lot of cutting. But sounds like you're getting to the final stuff. Woo hoo
I'm trying to descide how tall to make jarvis now that I establish I'm cool with extending his height. Anyone know how tall that guys 2000 he made taller?
I thought it was 8 inches. That's what I'm shooting for.
I'm thinking 4 + inches between bottom of base and mid base , and another 4+ between top of base and torso. Also I'm thinking of cutting up existing torso and molding it in to add a couple inches there too but I got to look closer to see if that's possible and still look good (ie not like o stick two torsos together with hotglue) if I extend the torso I will then have room for the shark vacuum to be mounted in the back of torso which means I would not need to build two different bots.
Wow that would.be an undertaking! Can you sketch out what your final vision would be? If you use hot glue, I remember someone saying there is a permanent type hot glue stick. I don't remember whose thread it was.
You can use automotive grade hot glue , gets much hotter than standard glue and its black , Its a abs gluestick , they are used in plastic welding too. I won't be near a computer but maybe I could get paper and pen and do real sketches. My roommate actually suggested raising the base for more room , and since I have seen another guy do it I'm confident I can do it even better!
Yes definitely raise the torso if you raise the base to keep good proportions. Possibly means raising torso the same or greater than base. What do you think?
