#368 Eclipse Robot

Kept myself busy during a teleconference. Eclipse gum 4 pack holder, cut and taped into a robot.

#360 Dinner is served!

As the project has gone on the accumulation of robots has continued. I haven't kept all the robots I have made but there are some I want to display but just am not sure how (other than rotating them in and out of a shelf). Found some shadow box frames at IKEA for cheap so here is #37 Robot Butler busy at a party. A dog party. But work is work nowadays.
Dinner is served, WOOF!

#316 StyroBot

Things StyroBot does not like: Stiff winds, corrosive chemicals, sharp knives.

Chunk of styrofoam and some recycled parts from the last few days.

#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.

#260 Mr. Mouth Bot

FEED ME! This bot seems to have a large capacity for filling its mouth.


Made from two lids painted silver and glued together with pipe stems and a googly eye. The lids looked like robo-boobs until I glued them together.

Reminds me of Mr. Mouth:

#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!

#258 Celery Bot Revisited

Oh the horror of organic based robots! Moisture content failing! Crispy immobility immanent!

Revisiting Celery Bot, I'll keep it going to see the final outcome but promise not to use it as a daily robot again, just an update.

#242 Serviette Bot

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


Empty napkin bag with Sharpie.

#231 Laser eyes!

Playing around with Pencil, an animation and art program for Mac, used my default 'Neutron Robot Man' and it lets you export as flash, not very compact but it is flash. So behind the break it goes since it is 12mb of file, don't want to break any browsers!

#207 Box Bot

This probably would have been more appropriate on Boxing Day but here it is - Box Bot.

#202 Merry Freaking Christmas, Meatbag!

Bender wishes you a Merry Christmas. Meatbag.

#184 Ticket Jacket Bot

Making use of the ticket jacket from my last flight.

#164 Return of Eyes/Mouth

Thanks to my boundless laziness today I bring you a return of the cut-out eyes and mouth. This time on a carpet sweeper.

#156 Abandoned Warehouse Bot

Much like humans have the bogeyman and felines have basement cat robots too have a fear of Abandoned Warehouse Bot or Ol' Scratchdisk. Parental Units warn their newly programmed dependent bots that if they don't behave Ol' Scratchdisk will come take them away to the abandoned warehouse.



LEDs in a gum container, in the dark.

#151 Skull Bot Anatomy

Here is the spine and eyes of yesterday's bot. I need to reclaim parts so figure I would use this as a chance to show off the 'guts'.

#148 More trick or treating

12V Flashbot joins Neutron Robot Man for Halloween. Ghost in the machine? No, the machine IS the ghost!

#139 Overalls

Yep, thems some mi-t-fine overalls robot.



Thought it looked like a pair of overalls. Just me? Ok, fine, funny looking pants then.

#119 Binary Steampunk Skull

Since it is a binary day (100110) I made a binary bot in ASCII Art, took #75 Robot Skull and ran it through an ASCII Art Generator located Sporkforge.com and Voila!



Sporkforge has some cool tools on the website that are worth a look including a tilt-shift photo generator.

#116 Snowy Owlbot

Not seen in warmer climates, the Snowy Owlbot is a majestic robot with a talent for hunting down smaller obsolete technology. Here one is feasting on a favorite meal - a CueCat of the PS2 variety, that's good eating!



Packing foam cut and glued, computer parts and an old Radio Shack CueCat (I have a USB one I've modified into a barcode scanner).

#113 Two heads are better than one!

Are two heads better than one? Does one have good thoughts while the other plots destruction? Well, no - they both want a meatbag pinata to play with. Science must go on, sometimes at the expense of the scientists.



Made from the plastic packaging for a pair of toothbrushes, googly eyes (of course!), network cable, paint, random parts and a dowel.
