My first Junkbot (very original title isn't it?)
Hi everybody, this is my first entry here! First entry for my first robot, so let me proudly introduce you my junkbot :
I found the instructions on Make Magazine and started to look for the components... I got the switches in an old computer mouse, the motors from a friend, some Meccano, a battery holder from a broken remote-control, two paperclips, some electrical tape, et voilà!
He's not very intelligent, but he was pretty fun to build, and most of all he gave me the need to do more! So now i can't wait to build the famous "StartHere", i just have to order the components and you'll see me again soon... (i hope!)

- Power source: 2 x 1.5V (AA)
