Been working on robot (junk bot) puppets for our space themed production, got me to wondering how many of our wonderful builders on Puppets and Stuff have ever done a robot. Would love to see some samples of what others have done.

I haven't made any robot puppets, but I'd really like to. Are you making yours out of spare parts/found things, or are you designing everything for, scratch?

hmm...thats not a bad idea, a robot build off :D

My son was a robot on Halloween once, I used dryer exhaust tubing for his arms. But no robot puppets.....yet.

My original builds were hodge-podge creations, velveeta boxes for arms, trash can bodies, etc., but the one I am currently working on is getting a full work up. I am using my laser engraver to cut out the mechanisms, so it should look retty sharp when finished. Actually going to pull out all of the stops and make some eye mechanisms for it as well as lights.

air conditioning ducting hose is good for moving arms.
