HI all,
I am a newbie to the EZ robot family and just fining my feet, I have a revolution on order and it has just progressed to "processing order". Getting excited now.
As i can't contain myself i thought i would share some photos of my build so far and update you all periodically on my progress.
My Walker is a Hexapod with a total of 18 servos in charge of the walking 3 on each leg, Sorry for stating the obvious there. All parts are hand cut (how i would love a laser cutter at times).
If i have done this correct then you should be able to see a photo of a Calf/Foot.
Only 5 more to do
thanks for taking the time to read this, i will keep you all updated and hopefully not bore you death.

Welcome! I look forward to seeing your project progress.
Hey welcome! If you had/borrow a jig saw with a plastic cutting blade you could cut them out much faster! ..and a file to clean up the edges.
Hi guys, thanks for the warm welcome. I use a Dremel mini saw attachment on a home made mini table saw bench, that doubles up as a router table for cutting. Had a productive evening this evening whilst "machining" the thighs for "Hexxy", only to discover that I had bent them the wrong way, so will have to start over. :-(
Whilst my last bit of time working on Hexxy was not so great, the times before were more fruitful, I managed to cut out all of her "calves" and attached the the servos, cut out the base plate and cover. Then fitted the servos there also.
Finally got the "thighs" of Hexxy sorted tonight after the embarrassing mistake of last week, but on a plus note I was able to machine them quicker as I knew what I was doing. Just got to wait for the adhesive to dry before I can connect all the pieces :-)
Looking good Can't wait to see the next update.
Woo hoo, Hexxy is built. All she needs is a brain and some sensors :-)
looking cool.

Thanks
