So far
Out of a gazillion parts I used these for now
And then stacked together it looks something like this
Only harddisk parts so far.

DucheBot, you are a very talented person!
Thanks, you’re such a nice
Thanks, you’re such a nice gay! I just wish I had more skill then talent…
Little tip
Remember kids, the older the better. I found more parts in the prehistoric beasts up to 1GB then in the newer ones. 1 one of them even used a proper steppenmotor to move the “read-heads” over the disks. Freak knows from what era that was.
How about some belt tracks
How about some belt tracks for a change?
Very nice parts
Those HD heads are very similar to legs. Like these:
I expect them any day now
I expect them any day now Got 2 types of belts from http://www.technobotsonline.com/wheels-and-propellers/tracks.html for a couple of euro’s.
Hola Mif!and even better
Hola Mif!
and even better they have a bearing in the center that is tappered on both sides (so you can just bolt them to a chassis and its moving real smooth).
First parcel arrived
The picaxe stuff came in. Pretty fast. Pretty nice.
The motors on the front, mistake. Pretty large and high for a minibot. Some others are on the way already.
With the order i got some abs boxes in various sizes. Dirt cheap and very handy.
Hola chicos!!!
I’m not very active lately, but don’t think I’m not following you at LMR…
As usual your designs look great! I like your proposal with 6 wheels. Maybe you should use some kind of rubber to improve the wheels.
that’s cool
this design its cool
i like the gripper.
Little more done
Because the grippers take up space I lifted the Sharp with a spacer
Litlle box, makes me nervous. Now it's waiting for the motors and caterpillar tracks.
Almost done
Alright, Rommel has his hands and face mounted
He has 3 little servos, 2 you can see the other one goes inside. For the hands and eyes. He also got 2 little headlights.
Now we have to wait for the motors and a sharp sensor (the one on there is the gp2d15, digital on/off).
Oh my, what lovely pictures
Oh my, what lovely pictures from your lawn! So fresh, yet subtle.
Artsy!
Verdomd, you are starting be an artist more and more! I’m liking it.
Nothing yet
Wait for few weeks more so I can get my hands back on “Round About Bob”. I have tons of ideas and some are already in place. Like an opening torso carrying 2 “canons” that fire off anything with a fuse (read fire crackers). The description of Bob aint a joke
Well, I ran out of desert
Well, I ran out of desert so grass was the best next option. I hope Rommel will excuse me. Still need to mow it now you mention it.
Robot looks awesome, don’t
Robot looks awesome, don’t mow that lawn, it looks perfect that way!
Tracks
Yes, my stuff came in today. No, it’s not right yet. They sent 2 motors but one had a very little shaft. No twss. So it’s back to the shop (how frustrating).
Anyhow, the rest was ok so I managed to start on the tracks. Check it out:
There's a little rollercaster in the front (from polulu). The Sharp sensors also came in, long(er) range one is mounted on there now. Since the tracks are that small I couldn't go for 3 wheels. The picture isn't very good. It looks better standing here.
how many parts are still from the hard disk?
which?
