Title: Not-so-stock, but fun anyway
Post by: SpyGuy on May 27, 2006, 02:12:21 PM: Thought you guys would enjoy seeing a "low-budget" robot I built using tools you would normally find in your garage. (Yeah, custom and cheat parts, but I don't care - i built it for fun).

This is Gran'Pa's Toolbox.

Specs are (more-or-less):
5 magic motors -2 for drive, 3 for spinning weapons
2 stock snapper motors
1 earthquake DDT
1 stock burst piston
Power - RyanRulez' portable reactor (Wastegate hacked by me)
(this will change - was too lazy to put the real batteries and airtanks in!)

Weaponry consists of:
Tire iron / Coca Cola Cam Hammer
Wham bat
DeWalt Hand Drill & drill blade
Car fan blade
Shovel flipper
Sledgehammer
Crowbar
Cinderblock ram
2x4
Screwdriver

Oh, and yes, those tires are mismatched, just for fun.

also, cocks.

Post by: SpyGuy on May 28, 2006, 11:39:10 AM: Thanks. The hardest part was trying to do that paint job. i must've tried about forty different textures on it, plus i layered on a lot of scrathes and dents. One of the panels behind the N-12 wheel is even made of wood.

Now, of course, you flip it over, and the bottom is glossy black ...

Post by: Badnik96 on April 07, 2013, 11:28:34 AM: You responded to a post from 7 years ago. That's the problem.

Post by: AlexGRFan97 on April 07, 2013, 11:50:00 AM: 29 May 2006. 7th April 2013. See the problem here?
Title: Re: Not-so-stock, but fun anyway
Post by: Naryar on April 07, 2013, 12:07:40 PM: The problem ISN'T ONLY that it was an old thread, the problem is that:

-we thought Spyguy was back
-you didn't add anything to the conversation
-the conversation was dead since seven years.

Not quite as there hasn't really been any content regarding the topic of the thread. Just discussion about you, which could be done easily in a different, more on topic thread.
