Giant Robot Project
Found this on a lesser forum, doesn't seem to have been on here... I love this guy, he's the Andrew WK of building giant robots.

Re: Giant Robot Project
He's the last guy that I think should have a Giant Robot.

Re: Giant Robot Project
part 2 is a bit boring after the first 20seconds cos u get the point very early on but its awsome what he's done.

Re: Giant Robot Project
By part 22 he's built a lot of the mechanical parts of the robot and got a workshop sorted on his land...some woman has showed up and is planting flowers in front of the "robot building"
The guy is inspiring in some ways to be honest, a little eccentric but doing what he wants and no caring about what is conventional and what others think.....he does need an off road bike for that land of his though! I think YC should do some youtubing of any project work too...

Re: Giant Robot Project
Oi I'm not in any way eccentric, I mean in between poddling about with the lathe, fixing some motocross forks, rebuilding the odd shock, fixing my welder, all I've been doing is building a furnace to melt metal using waste oil which is perfectly normal.
Oh hang on. But yeah I'll take some vids of big flames and such.
