Knives, Forks and Spoons

Let's Make Robots Robots

Knives Forks and Spoons is my homage to Chopsticks and Chopsticks Jr.. (I hope to end up like Chopsticks Jr. - Beaten to death by a Model during a photo shoot.)

 

But sereusly I learned a lot.

       I got the idea for fame based walking - that's where each loop thru the main line program increments the frame variable to the next set of servo positions.  I switched to Rechargeable batteries.  I made the master of the Upper leg and cast copies of it. (Thanks to http://familab.org/blog/ For Tom not being able to take the resin and silicone back on the plane.)

And as a blast from the past its ROBOTGOLDFISH Vs. CALIGULAhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jO_uuQ_O_dM&feature=player_detailpage

Glad to hear that Chopstick Jr. is still alive.  But now I envy his jet-setting fashion model lifestyle.
