Despite being a rather old build, its aged well and still demonstrates the clever ways the guys overcame some engineering obstacles.
The original plan for the pipe crawler was to mount three … Read the rest
[Husstech] wrote in to share his Snake Bot with us. Initially inspired by this post about SickSack, a snake bot, he set out to build his own version. While the concept and even the design aren’t particularly new or groundbreaking, he is very thorough in his documentation. Since this was a project for school, the PDF of his project… Read the rest
