Steve. It came back last year. Gone have the rubbish chain saws, circular saws and pathetic spikes. Now we have flippers that can turn over 300+kg house robots, axes that can knock out robots in one go and flywheels capable of destroying the arena barriers.

Thanks. I was scratching my head with this. Access to the nut is very limited.
