This is a simple project that hopefully I wont over complicate. Since he Squeegee needs to get as close to furniture and the toilet and bathtub as possible this my be a challenge. After all we spend most our time trying to get our robots to avoid the objects in the room. Im giving new life to a radioshack robie jr rc controlled robot.

The only piece I cant spray is the front torso because I need to fill pin holes and sand it well. Because the sprayer nozzles are sitting in the holes of the torso drying I cant really get to that till tommorow. Its 335 am now so my puppies and fish are ready to go to bed...... even puffer fish is tired of watching me work.....
Goodnight everyone..
I checked the painted parts. They were very tacky still but looked great. This may be because of the low temp last night and this am. I can tell I need to stick these in a warmer a while or somthing. Otherwise it looks pretty good. Im so inpatient! I want this little dude together now! I may drop the parts in the oven @ 100 degrees F for a couple hours to harden up this painy quicker. While thats drying I can bondo the front of squeegee. Im considering completely filling the lines accross the front too. I need to purchase another sander from where I accidentally threw mine away.
I'm digging on puffer fish...and squeegee
Thank you
ok here is finished product of the paint on the cam.
Maybe I will paint the camera reciever white to match. Hmmm I need a label maker lol
That colour coordination will look really sharp
Thanks gunner. Im a big fan of a clean looking bright white robot. The paint is still tacky to the touch after 24 hours. Im sure its a temp issue. I turned the oven on to 120 f my lowest setting and left the door open. I will check it often but the parts need warmth to cure.
