Robot Design



Builder Steve asks Clayton, "I’m intrigued to know how you design these robots. Do you use Meccano to test out varying options?"

Clayton answers: 
I've never had a Meccano set, but I think having one would have been a boon to my creativity.

I design in my head, then I draw, and test, and test, and test, draw some more and re-test.  Eventually I either give up, or have a success.

You can see one of my failures below.  Cracks me up every time I watch it.  Virtually nothing is successful the first time.

I love comments, but in order for me to have more time playing in my sawdust, I cannot respond to them here. If you have a technical question, please do not post it here, or I will have my wife answer it for me and her technical knowledge is highly suspect. For technical questions, check out the FAQ section of my website, or find my email link there. Mahalo and Aloha, Clayton
