HI all
This is my robot AEGIS.
He is made from scrap parts found in a local junkyard and old metal offcuts from my workshop.
The chassis is made from 2"x2" box section mild steel. The upper frame made from 1"x1" box section mild steel.
The Torso is made from a drain inspection chamber that i got from a local builders merchant. It was damaged so couldnot be used for drainage .
The torso twist motor is from the junkyard , Its a window motor from some 1980s car. The air tank for the pneumatic system came from a old truck , It was the air tank for the brake system.
IF YA WONT TO GET A HAT , GET A HEAD.
I made a tempary head out of cardboard , To get the look right.
MR TUFF NUT.
I then used the carboard head as a template to make a metal replacment.
BRAINS
The brains have flashing LEDs to add that cyborg look.
Im waiting for the motor controller (sabertooth) to arrive . Let the ROBOLUTION begin.
More posted as i make progress.

hi
Not my first but the biggest iv tryed . my first robot was a turtle bot powered by a sincler (timex) spectrun. in mid 80's worked ok but very limited.
yes i made a robot using it too mostly like trying all types of robot designs to compare them ,like turtlebot using ros,i made and icreate project using propellor board ,oap project,AND SEEKER robot made by dave shinsel and next it the LOKI MADE BY HIMthese are large scale robots and palm robot (small scale) now working on small scale robots about 30 using ezb ,EVEN THE OMNIBOT is a small scale design
love the loki robot great design and programming . a long way beyond me ,but i will try to make my bot do something usfull and be entertaining
very soon will make it,since i mostly work at home or when they send me to china my work pays me almost what ever i want thats fair per project mostly $5k so i have much time off and work on robots,looking to get over $100k for a special ultra high precision AC DC V/A source thats my design and they didnt ask me to build it but robots building and collecting i love more
i kinsa like colecting robots to
2 rad 1's 1 omnibot 1 rovio (my fav) great nav setup 1 tribot 1 cybot 1 robosapian 1 roboraptor 1 quadbot
i have the rovio too,plus robosapian and 6 radsalmost all of them except rad and omnibot can be controlled by EEG headset ,called robodance software
iv run out of space now so most have got to go .ill keep the rovio , omnibot , 1 rad and the tribot .
dam, its like a death in family if i have to get rid of mine,i have a few rooms for my robots
