#361 Robot Garage

The robots are heading down to the garage, or as they call it 'Our clubhouse'. Just going to spend their free time tuning up and bolting modifications on themselves.

Robot stickers given to me by my mother in-law.

#349 Workout Robot

This robot will work you out and pump you up. But it won't have an illegitimate child that it doesn't tell you about for a decade...



Arranged dumbbells

#341 Beatnik Robot Head

Hey daddy-o can you dig the groove?

Found what reminded me of a beatnik inside a DSL filter that I was taking apart to see what was in it. Apparently beatnik robot heads are what is in DSL filters then.

Daddy-o.

#339 Pegboard Compatible Bot

This robot is compatible with pegboard.

Pegboard accessories. Once again a home improvement day but at least I am out in the garage now trying to clean up my 'shop' area.

#331 Sock Robot

Getting to some closet organization, so here are some of my workout socks as a robot.

#318 Water Bot-tle

All of my crafty stuff is packed, so instead of another drawing I looked for what I could use in a nearly fully packed apartment, so here's a water bot-tle.

#313 Pegbot

Pegbot also known as the Luddite robot.

Spare IKEA pegs

#312 Chrome Plated Dalek

Chromed tricked out Dalek.

Yes, I know that Daleks are not really robots. I'm not a major Who fan but this busted shower head reminded me of a Dalek.

#301 Grabby Roller

Roll and grab. Roll and grab. Simple protocol to follow, just hope you're not in its path when it either rolls or grabs.


Made during a telcon. Cardboard, empty tape roll, empty can of almonds, Sharpie.

#300 MADNESS? THIS IS SPARTABOT!!!!!!

LE0-D0NI5 is a Spartan Bot. Ready to hold back the P34-51@N robots as long as possible.



#300 just calls for that old meme SPARTA!
Two tennis balls, a piece of felt for the frill, plastic pieces from windshield wiper adapters, pipe stem and RAM with some Sharpie.
A shot outside my light box which was not cooperating today.

#291 Jumpin' Jack Bot

Jumpin' Jack Bot Does a Lot Lot Lot!
Ok, not as catchy as the Stones song.

Vintage jacks (probably 1950s) from my wife's grandmother's house. Monday 3/21/2011 robot, no computer yesterday to post.

#290 NCAA Basketbot

In the ongoing battle against counterfeit tickets the NCAA has devised the transforming ticket to prove its authenticity. Michael Bay explosions not included.

Made from my ticket to yesterday's NCAA game.

#273 Gift Card Bot

FOLLOW ME. I AM PROGRAMMED TO TAKE YOU TO CAFFEINATED GOODNESS.....

Cut up Starbucks gift card

#261 Indecent Exposure Bot

"Will some be offended by my lack of pants? Sure there are famous characters with no pants such as Porky Pig and Donald Duck but neither have a swivel lifting block between their appendages that is there for the world to see."
Oh automaton, if you've got it flaunt it, you're just as the creator made you *

*not an endorsement of letting non-automatons 'swing free'


Mini flashlight and wire.

#259 SCIENCE!

This automaton has donated its chassis to science. It is now used as a teaching aid in a robo-osteology class.


Yes I reused parts from #257 the Untangler, it looked too much like a skull the other way around so a robot skeleton seemed appropriate. Nod to Skull A Day and Noah for the Skullphabet 2 font and as always for Skully inspiration!

#257 Untangler

How can a robot with such spindly wiry arms and no obvious means of self-propulsion be an 'untangler'? It's a mystery of automata for sure.

Found pieces, keystone network jack and handset 'untangler' and some wire

#253 Brass Nails

This robot has some brass ones, plenty of brass ones.

Found a pile of little finish nails, formed into a robot.

#248 Soap Bot

What gets dirtier as you get cleaner? Could be Soap Bot...

Carved hotel soap, this was harder than I thought it would be, sacrificed one bar for figuring out some sort of technique. Used an Xacto and some dental tools to work with it, wet it down a little and continued.

#242 Serviette Bot

Need a serviette (napkin)? This bot would like to help but it has run out.


Empty napkin bag with Sharpie.

#239 Bulbous Bot

Tubby and burned out is Bulbous Bot.

Not what I planned to make tonight but when the bulb popped in my office lamp it presented ready material
