Interesting guy, now on part 2...thanks for link :)

edit: this guy is cracking me up :lol:

"I bet you're going like what in the heck is that..well, it's a giant robot part obviously!"

I've seen there is a part 67...so there are A LOT of youtube clips!

Re: Giant Robot Project
 

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

:p

Interesting bloke, er, unconventional.

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
 

Its your cousin isnt it?

:p

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...:lol:

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.
