Hi I'd like to build an ABC warrior.
I spend the year building a CNC plasma cutter, its not finished, and then I bought a CNC router to repair. I'll put a pic below the arm.
So I joined loads of facebook CNC groups and somewhere in there, someone posted a KUKA robot arm they had just taken delivery of. That threw me, I didnt realise they were possible to own. But of course, they are old tech by now, so it makes sense.
Anyway, I looked at the vids, and at the servos mechanisms they use, they are not the same as the servos and steppers on my machines, But at the end of the day, they are just motors, and understandable.
Cut a long story short, I want to build a 30 foot high bipedal robot for bashing other robots. I dont care if it takes me 5 years and all my cash, I will destroy it if I can find an opponent.
Why cant i do this, I'm sure there are a lot of reasons, what does the list look like?
Is it possible at all?

$4000. There is enough there to make a leg or an arm, no? so maybe 30 K for a full robot? would take me several years to pay for.
