kinohaguruma's Robots in Wood

[doc222]

Just seen his latest work and since it is a walker I thought to share it with all. This guys work in wood is just amazing and now he has went from just wood to wood and motors and cable linked R/c but notice even the controler is wood. I would love to have this modle in my display.

Well nothing too new, X-2 has went through some major and minor upgrades added 1 more Dof so now it can turn in a zero condition. So the hips are what I can discribe as a "claw shell design" they can open up and the unweight foot can turn up to about 45degrees. New foot plate that is 1/2 weight of the old and started to program its first sensor into this mess of motors. no film, yet to come

My side project, more Technic PF related. is short on parts as well. Its a grader, I seen the contest they had at technic bricks last month and seen the top picks . Gave me idea to build one as well. Pluss I am putting a new design V4 LPE in it this design is not the normal V4-6-8 LPE's same V in Lego all LPE I seen are 90 degree V This is great for tunning but it is VERY wide for lego projects since at the top of the piston it is 13 studd wide. My new 60 degree V4 through 8 is only 9 wide at the top and 5 at the bottom. This fits in models very nice too and easy, puts out an easy 1200rpm and enough power to twist any lego axle if loaded. THis is a monster grader 6 wheel drive you can rotate and angle the blade and it will push more than Lego bits its for off road. But i need parts for it and its still way in mockup mechnicals right now. Ill take pics of it any way and make a post about it soon. Since it is not NXT at this point and realy is not a good project for nxt unless p

I don't think a single one of us would really care if it had an NXT or not, besides, building is more than half the fun, and I'd like to see your pictures .
