Electric Robot and Son Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 Thanks everyone for you nice comments. They are much appreciated. Andy, the clear top is a polycarbonate bird feeder cover. The bottom dome is a stainless IKEA mixing bowl. The top and bottom saucer dishes are two aluminum heat reflectors from propane patio heaters. Gort's conical navigation controls are wine bottle stoppers.

AtomicRobot Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Incredibly cool ! Great choices of materials, and toys ! As cool as Gort is, the astrogator is really neat ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Robot and Son Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 Thanks AtomicRobot. The Gort Saucer was more complicated than the Robby Saucer I had done earlier. The Robby Saucer is simpler because it is solar powered and spends three seasons outside in the garden. You can see it here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
