Thanks John ! Great instructions. I gave it a shot. Was doing OK until I got to the arms. I'm so used to working with "TIN" that I just KNEW I could solder the arms on. Gave it a go ,,,,,,I don't know maybe it was the flux. The whole thing went up in flames. :blush:

Actualy there is no reason these paper robots can not be made in tin. Just spray glue the paper print out to the thin tin or copper, then cut out with scissors like normal, peal off the paper (or not) then bend and solder. I have used this method many times as it saves a ton of time compared to trying to transfer measurments and lines to metal.

Building one of these paper robots (it was a Robby, of couurse) proved to be one of the hardest things I ever did. Maybe if I had glued the paper to a tougher substance it would have been much easier. Tin is a great idea John!
