ALL VIDEOS HAVE BEEN MOVED TO MY NEW YOUTUBE CHANNEL, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0rzTuN8JW_pY0RDhS7Q0BA
when I was a kid I always liked to build those wooden dinosaur/dragon/spider kits. You know the ones that all linked together, no glue needed. I would pretend they would come to life and stuff like that. Well thanks to EZ Robot I am now making my dreams come true. I am building an animatronic Dragon in the same style as those wooden kits. I am using white plastic garbage cans as the main material for this build, I am also using some light wood for the main body to screw everything on to. Here is what I have so far.
Testing size of wing.

Thank you very much, I really appreciate the compliments. I can not wait to save up enough to start a new build. This has been awesome fun!.
Here are some close up pictures, I am currently working on my kids Halloween costumes, once done I will be posting some templates of the dragon.
It should have hawk feet. You could watch DragonSlayer for reference.
This is amazing work!
This is BEAUTIFUL!:)
Great progress pics! Keep up the good work
Your construction ideas/ photos are valid for many other robot applications.
Thank you, I am in the process of making another one, I am taking more indepth photo's and video's I will be posting in a few days.
