In 2002 I tried making a robot and improved it in 2003. The problem was, I was living in a tiny flat with only a pocket knife as a tool so what I created ended up being rather flimsy. I planned to rebuild it, but didn't get around to it until 2015.
I've made an entry to a blog every few years here with more about the parts: http://dandroid20xx.blogspot.co.uk
I'm now looking for inspiration on this site for more ways to exand the robot. Most likely I'll increase the platform size to accomodate an arm and some additional sensors on the back.
