This is BARM, my work in progress robot.

BARM stands for Blue Autonomous Rolling Machine.

Beautiful isn't he?
He would be alive right now, but he needs a 330Ω resistor snd some wires.
As you can see, the "chassis" is made from popsicle sticks.
Here are some more pics.

I haven't used any resistors for my servos, just a little piece of wire. Also, those servo wires that they sell at HVW Tech are good, I got about 5, but I have since run out. :(

Man, you may not think so, but that is a very neat robot. In both ways. My first robot..ermm.. like it had so many taped wires sticking out of it and all that. Anyways, cool! I'm surprised nobody else commented. I think you should add some kind of shell, but I've noticed "cases" feel too limiting.
