Interesting Mini-sumo build

February 9, 2011

This mini-sumo design by Jeremy Bloyd-Peshkin features our wheels, and one of our favourite building materials, Sintra. We can't laser-cut sintra (PVC=bad stuff when burned), but milling it works well, as this builder shows.

The asymmetric motor layout works, as proven by this contest-winning design (scroll to the bottom of the page).
