Hi everyone,

So here's the deal,

I just ran into this cool old robot thing... Originally from the Nintendo 1.0 it is full of possibilities.

The arms travel up while the claws close, they open as they lower. 

The base has room in it for 4AA's and a small board.

The arms can also swivel 360 degrees while the head stays stationary

Also -The base is the exact right size for standard tracks.

 

The Chair Challenge II prize arive my home, and i couldn't be happest, Thanks fritsl, Thanks LMR.

The winner was my robot for sucessful make the Chair Challenge II.

So he deserve to get some upgrades with new parts =P

 

Here go some fotos to everyone, and i will make some tutorial with, to everyone know what pololu can do =P

...home at the right time. When I got home today after a shopping trip, there was a note from the postman saying they were here twenty minutes before I got home. With a package that I know contains the servos I ordered. And I can't get my hands on the package before monday... :(

Hi everybody, I just had this crazy idea, and where else if not here to post it.

Hi everybody, I would like to congratulate all the members from this website. I think that we’re building a very interesting community and we’re sharing very good material, ideas and concepts for robots. I would like to give a special congratulation to ''Fritsl'' for all the dynamism he gives to the Let’s make robots!

Ok, so here we are, making a small tutorial to everyone that wanna know what arduino is..

I have some experience with it already, but its low one, so i will start this how to, to everyone that wanna start can follow this first steps.

 Day 1:

 

Well, I finished the construction, added the second drumstick up front, redid all of the circuitry on a PCB to eliminate the breadboard and clean things up, soldered up ribbon connectors instead of having loose wires everywhere, and glued down everything that was still hanging loose. So it's done, mechanically. Now I've turned attention to the coding.

Hey all long time no see, and welcome to all the newcomers, still playing with my pickaxe from time to time, hastn't created anything realy of interrest yet and I havn't gotten around to connect some motors but it's going to happen one of these days.

Ahh, I've made a lot of progress. LDM is now almost complete, construction-wise. I still want to cram in a second drumstick up front somewhere, and of course I need to attach that sampling board hanging out in space (I'll probably just hot-glue it to the side), but there's enough there to start working on the code.
