Drain Bamage is a 30lb featherweight combat robot I've been working on. It's a non-traditional combat robot in that it's not meant to actually 'win', but it's meant to get knocked around by other bots and survive. It's essentially a crash-test dummy, a bullet sponge, or the target of everyone's aggression. In this video series, I attempt to make a truly indestructible combat robot.

$Practical Design for Custom 3D Printed Parts The planter by our front door isnt sitting flat and quite frankly Im losing sleep over it. Thankfully I have a few 3d printers, so I can fix this massive shame on my household. Designing your own parts is the greatest part of owning a 3d printer, you just have to keep in mind what youre trying to accomplish.
