My name is Hunter, I am 8 yrs. old, and wanted to build my own robot. S.A.M. Synthetically Advanced Machine is the robots name. My grandpa Steve S, had me watch the EZRobot movies showing me how to build before we started. Rich kindly created a playlist, my Dad helped me cut the arms, and prepared our computer. My robot is made with simple items. Dollar store body and head. Water bottle caps for eyes with homemade blue inserts. Recycled L.E.D.s from autodealer mailing gadget, grandma collected. PVC pipes for arms. Ears made from bubble blowing tops. Radio Shack on/off switch. Aluminum bars. Screws, washers, nuts, and bolts. Powered by EZ Robot kit Version3. Hope you like my robot.

Hunter, great Job. Keep up the great work!
Steve, also a great job teaching your grandson. I can't wait to start doing this with mine.
Very cool Hunter!
Great work Hunter! Always excited to see S.A.M.!
Thank you EZ Robot, My brother and I spent the weekend at Grampa and Grandmas and worked on robots. My brother has a DIY robot and we ran both robots. Hope you like our robots. We tried different things.
Great video I watched it twice. Looks like S.A.M wins. Captain America is going to need some upgrades
Haha the dreaded wheel lock.
