Thanks for starting this group Scot. R2Builders group has made a monster out of me (monster that wants to BUILD things). I added links and photos that I know...
If we truly do determine his size ourselves, it's probably best to make that decision after we find things. For instance, if we find a really good set of...
That's a good point but let's find the hard part. The tracks. The rest is easily made from scratch. What tracks around 6 inch wide are out there? BrianM...

On the front panel there is a "Key Lock" And on the top panel there are three square, what look to be lighted push button switches. All these can be used for...
I was sick the other day, so I started toying around with the track concept. At a 14"X14" storage measurement, the track is roughly 54" radius. Actually making...
We are doing this because you were getting burned out and starting a boat project!! LOL Just another cute robot project. Good call on th size Brian! 18" seems...

I think a lot of the movements are possible. The head for the most part just needs to turn left & right and look up & down. If a 'pan and tilt' mechanism for...
Graig, you let it sound easy, But i don't agree, think that together with the sliding mechanism, the up and down movement has to slide to.... By the way...
Speaking of movement... One idea to get the arm movement in the "U" shape on the side of WALL-E was the simple idea of an arm, pivot point and movement groove....
Hey jerry... I was wondering what program you are using to draw your schematics... it looks simple and I really need a program to transfer my drawings to the...
Hello, As far as i can see the side of body( without the back hump) is a square . I'm i right if i see the height a little more than that ( about half a inch?...
