Sometime in the late '70’s early '80s a magazine like Popular mechanic had a series of articles to build a robot. I started it, but went into the service and my mother tossed it later. I would love to find that series and update it to today’s standard and try to build it.
But i cant find it anywhere and i have done a lot of searching, so im asking if anyone remembers those articles or even the name of the publication it was in.
thanks.
Unfortunately that was even before my time - given that it’s 40 to 50 years old, the information is likely irrelevant by today’s standards. Even the mechanical side likely needs to be updated. We have a general “How to make a robot” series here which is popular:

Is there anything in particular you recall liking about the series in Popular Mechanics? We’d be interested in knowing as this series will also eventually need to be updated.
