Welcome to the new TSM website!
Few changes to reflect the changes in our robots. Our new robot is a clusterbot, Spyro. We are also building
serveral small fighting robots to a cross between our own rules and Rex Garrod’s Robot Challenge Rules.
There are also some new sections in the Features area. I have also removed the KnowHow section until I can
get it right. I am hoping to include step by step guides on how to go about building your own robot, and these
will be along as soon as possible.

Thanks to...
The Weston Road High School pupil who came up with the original idea for Spyro. We have changed it a bit,
but it is still almost the same. Sadly, I can’t remember the name of the pupil.
Weston Road High School: Mr. Johnson and the CDT dept. have helped us greatly.
Staffordshire University: Short lived help, but none the less very helpful.
(And A quick hello to everyone I know at Staffs Uni school of computing)
Chetwynd Centre: Welding and helping us with equipment.
John Wheeldon Primary School: Year five helped me with my A-level project, and they will have some
designs of their own shortly. Watch this space.
And Anyone I've forgotten. We have had support from everyone over the last two years of building robots,
and I hope they will continue to support us.
And A quick safety note to Dr. Clive Chandler, who may well be looking at this site. Remember WHAT the
site is about before you say anything!
