Grandpa Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 Thanks John, yoda is one of my favorites so I had to show his re-run :)Mark, no 3D Printer here, I used my laser cutter to cut them out of 1/16" acrylic and the arms are cut from 1/8" acrylic and laminated for the added thickness.Mark, they are small, the TV Bot is 4 3/4" and the clockworks is 5 1/2". I've always prefered to build small models, it is more of a challenge to get detail for a smaller model. The X-Terminator I built that you have is one of the largest robots I have built and it is not all that big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyman Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Will I get into trouble if I said, "Very robotty!"? ;) Cool stuff, Gramps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Gramps, how would you like to build a 100 yr old robot ? I have some 100 yr old American Chestnut in the shop. It's 3" thick 18" wide and 10 ft long. I could cut off a small chunk and send it to you. It's beautiful wood and rot resistant ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the offer, but I actually have some Chestnut but it's probably not 100 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
