Happy Fathers Day' you Bot builder's πŸ€–πŸ¦Ύ

I have some other projects in the works. Another favorite thing I love to do is make and build stuff, if you haven't noticed. I love model making, Animatronics and practical movie effects and stop animation. I am gonna remake the Small Soldier movie toys line with animatronics and there packaging just like in the movie. (Done by Stan Winston originally) Plus the wife has me working on the Puppets from the Puppet Master movie franchise. So it looks like I'ma be diving into the 3-d printing world and learning zbrush. I already have some knowledge on airbrush painting and have a good understanding of color theory ( blood and gore. I previously use to build haunted houses and did so for like 4 years. I learned a lot of different skills during that time. I got the Mechanical and Electronics plus Graphic design and a few more skill assets under my belt. I will be diving more into mould making, sewing, and more on movie props and practical effects I will be tryna document with video for YouTube. Thanks to all my follows and friends. See ya soon πŸ¦ΎπŸ€–

The moment you get it all wired up and ready to do the turn on test. To see your Creation come to life. Will it work? Will it blow up? Will nothing happen or is it just about perfect with a few tweaks? These are the most exciting moments. Plus I think the wiring harness so far looks pretty official. I have added connectors to add other components like Arduino Jetson nano and such. This will be a long time project like Jeff the house bot. But in the end it's worth it. Til the next one stay inspired πŸ€–

I Went through and redid the wiring. I added a few things like a better fuze, better connectors and took out a few things' like some weird capacitor on the motors and the old style Charge on/off switch. This is a 12v system with a 7.0 ah battery I'm thinking I'm might convert this one over to drill battery as well lol. Or at least up the amp hour to like 10ah. Well more to do as I work on and I have got to get back over to the and get it complete. See ya next time, so much to do and more parts to get πŸ€–

I have got it down to the bare metal frame. Started going through all the parts and seeing what will be used next!!! Bot building in full effect at Locke Robotics I've got 3-4 projects all about in the halfway mark except Lochness-7. See you in the next update πŸ€–

I love Part's, all parts. Found this awesome piece has a max weight limit of 130 pounds. And @ 4.5mph. this will be an awesome robot platform this takes out alot of guess work on the drive train, which is one of the more costly and can be a headache to figure out. You have to find the motors and figure a way to mount motors on your build and so on. I love these old scooters and kids toys they contain great motor/gear boxes and wire harnesses and charging ports. πŸ€– Next im going to take it all the way apart. Pictures coming

Lil Xtra camera action with the little 9g blue servo. πŸ€– This is a clever Mechanical design. And works flawlessly. I plan on adding a metal gear servo to just add protection the complete mechanism is made from 1/16 metal. It seems to be very solid and moves freely. Thanks for checking in on the toto project. R&D underway πŸ€–
