Beetle Weight Combat Robot “Munchkin” assembly video

This is a video for the assembly of my very first 1.36KG Beetle-Weight Combat Robot “Munchkin”.

If you don’t want to watch the time lapse of the robot being assembled skip from 07:25 to 12:50

Here is where you can find the files for 3D printing the top and bottom shell, the Lid, the 2 side plates and the weapon beater bar (this is longer than the standard fingertech beater bar, so you can still use the fingertech beater bar but it will be a bit short and you will need a longer supporting bolt and a plug for the bearing holes)
