Re: bad idea?

Stop whining about a serial troll's ban, especially since this thread has absolutely nothing to do with that.

Re: bad idea?
To be honest, I don't know what the point of a bristlebot is. The best use for it would be for painting or cleaning.

Their point is that they are pointless! Just cool little things that cruize around
I dunno bout a contest, but i'd certainly like to make a massive one one of these days

What if you were to take a rumble motor from a controller, and put it on a bigger brush?

Re: bad idea?
The rumble motor from a controller is just a generic motor with a half-circle attachment. Fairly easy to make rather than taking a controller apart for one.HotDog-Cart wrote:What if you were to take a rumble motor from a controller, and put it on a bigger brush?>:3
As for attaching one to a brush, you'd have to have a pretty big brush for it to not flip itself over and carve chips into your desk.

I WAS going to turn it in to something useful, but...
No, I kid.

Re: bad idea?
I've got a 10 hp engine from a snow blower sitting around...I think I'll use that for an epic bristle bot the likes none have ever seen. It will spread terror and destruction were ever it goes! maw hahaha!
