Great meetup and thanks to Team Penny for taking the footage for us!

All setup for tonight’s monthly Meetup! Some really cool bots coming! Everyone welcome!

Has it was a nice day and while working on the workshop I decided it was time to do abit of TLC and a few off the heavyweights and get the others ready for this year's @Robo_Riots has well 🙂

Tickets are up for our next robot building workshop! 16th of May from 10-5! Weather you are an seasoned engineer or never touched a soldering iron by the end of the day you will have your very own Robot! combatroboticsni.com/w5-workshop

The @RyobiToolsUK tools have been getting some abuse not only with the arenas but also in the Belfast Maker Space renovations!

We just got a delivery! Huge thank you to @RyobiToolsUK for sending us out all these tools to help us get the new robot arenas built ASAP! (We also may have a few Ryo-bots on the way too!) We can’t wait to start building 😁
