OK I spoke to Mark this morning, We're ok for sidetracked on Sunday.
Mark would like to know what time we're going to show up.
Please let me know.
I know Andrew W had said he couldn't show before around 4.15 due to work.
Should we say 3pm???

Around Midday seems about right to me but Rob and I can work in if others want to start later. Anyone heard from George? _________________ Satisfaction is proportional to effort and results.

Looks like we will go straight to sidetrack then, thanks anyway George.
Anyone need anything.
I will bring a few battery combos to perhaps help Andrew decide which way to go.
The scales and the 2 new Chronos bots. _________________ Satisfaction is proportional to effort and results.

THeres a few parts am looking for in case anyone showing up might have.
IN short looking for single speed planetary gearboxs that have been mangled and stuffed up somehow. Dont need the gears or the motor just the nose assembly where the threaded shaft comes out and where the clutch assembly goes. Dont really want to pull apart complete working assemblies even though thats what am doing with my own crap.
So if you have any mangled gearboxs that you might throw out then save the ends for me please. Guess will find some at flea markets eventually but thought some of you might have some _________________ Bots that do not destroy you, only make you stronger.

Its been decided to run an Exhibition Event on the Queens Birthday weekend.
This will consist of various activities ranging from real judged grudge matches and perhaps a real round robin event to lots of fillers.
Everything from the old favorite smashing things to Sumo Soccer type activities.
A good test and tune day for Battelshed. _________________ Satisfaction is proportional to effort and results.

Well, I recall Brett mentioning something along the lines of you suggesting kicking back at your place and that you were still keen on those Battle bot tapes etc, Danny had lots of Ideas to talk about and there wasn’t time to talk at Battelshed.
We have our story of how things finished up after you had to go.
Brett has a couple of controllers for me and I need help with my power supply and a couple of Ideas about a mod to the scorpion XL.
I have the Roboteq and programming cable if anyone wants a play to.
I am also wondering where we go from here and I have an urge to build a couple of new bots and spending money I haven’t got.
So the sooner the better I suppose. _________________ Satisfaction is proportional to effort and results.
