--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Take heed, some day he'll be a lyrical poet... for now let's focus on scrubbing the 27 years of lead battery acid and insect detritus from his yellowing shell - with a little help from Jacques the crab and, ever the looky-loo, Mr. Bubble!
I wanted to called this guy Mr. White Christmas but my son Z was set on Vanilla Ice. He's in the early planning stages and remains as yet unmodified. And here he is all uncovered and bare, getting his clean on before his eventual transmogrification...
Let's kick it!
Wait, am I in a Bathtub?

I love the wifi lights! the nixie tubes are a amazing idea too.
I would just like to mention that this thread has more posts than any other thread on the forums! A total of 52 very well deserved posts
I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy....Seriously awsome build. And inspiring to noobs like me. I only hope that BOB will be half the robot of Vanilla Ice. Have you thought of micro servos (9g types) to rotate the eyes? Mounting them right onto the servo horns? Just a thought. Any suggestions you may have for BOB would be greatly appreciated as well. Thank you.
wow these robot pics are getting kinda kinky.....
I'm bleaching my omnibot 2000 in the dishwasher , my yellowing was much worse than yours. He must have had a pack a day habit! Lol if strait bleach doesn't do the trick ill do this for the two robots um doing now. Thanks
