1. Sure, infact I am working on a non-cubic puzzle scrambling bot myself (https://github.com/abunickabhi/WCA_allpuzzle_scrambler) Although I have not found to time and money to get started on it. Also, I am learning robotics for past semester, and will do it after the semester ends. Skewb solving bot sounds dope.
2. Speed is obviously the main thing that comes to my mind if this bot is ever to be used in an official WCA comp.
Move count is another aspect and the way the Tnoodle software takes care of this issue, should be noted by you.
3. I think this project is feasible. (although not on the first attempt, maybe the 10th attempt or so)
4. xyzzy and Mike Hughey have important suggestions, please follow them.
5. I have seen big cube solving bots, and 3x3 solving bots in the past (Mostly on this forum: http://cubesolvingprograms.freeforums.net/)
6. Yo! (If you have any further doubts or need help, drop a mail to [email protected])
Thanks for the advice, I'll definitely make sure I consider all of everyone's suggestions! and good luck with your project as well, it sounds really interesting!
Also, I've been emailing with turtwig and we've been trying to incorporate his Skewb solver into our project. It should be doable with the right modifications, it's just a matter of getting it to work, and getting his Java code and our Arduino code to collaborate with each other.
