Well, turns out the plastic standoff kit won't be here until Thursday. What's coming Wednesday is the cable to mod my old Kindle Fire, so that's what I'll be up to tomorrow. Well, after work, cause now my weekend's over...
Some more metal today, some more nibbler wrist destruction too. I also realized that I indeed had a pop rivet gun in the garage, so a quick trip to Harbor Freight got a selection of rivets to replace some of the Erector screws. And, of course, that came with even more wrist thrashing. Stupid joints getting in the way of robot building.
Anyway, I got the other side of the deck/cage thing done, as well as the beginnings of the final height of the main chassis. Still need to cut out the deck plate and decide how to style the back "roof".
Turns out ol' Ruprecht is shaped like a coffin now.
