Phil R Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 yes, it is an amazing robot. Americans can still make great products when they set their minds to it. Even Tintin is agape ! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Great job.Eagle, I really haven't broken it down since I make a couple at the same time, but it takes about 30 hours total for each one from start to finish. The dial numbers and lettering are machined (laser engraved), decals would ruin the overall effect of making it a scaled reproduction.The real time was spent making the 100 plus CAD Drawings and converting them to G-Code for the CNC Mill, Lathe and Laser. A fair amount of time was also spent on making fixtures to hold the parts to machine them, plus all of the molds were machined to make the cast parts. Needless to say it was not a money making project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
