mh, I'd really enjoy hearing about your construction process with this. You're doing some mighty fine work here.

Thanks for the comments!

Ive been in the garden cutting and drilling some plastic to make all the joints with.



Now its just a case of attaching them to the pieces and bolting it all together, then i will try it on and video it

Update soon.

Also....

This is totally unrelated to robo, but while i was in the grden cutting plastic i had some spare so i dcided to make this:





and a video of it unfolding:

Elbow hinges are now installed, as are knees and ankles. The legs are now complete as one piece from hip to toe and are massive!



I still havent got around to building the left piston...



So i tried the legs on and there is a slight problem, having the attchment to my belt at the top of each thigh (hip area) severly restricts movement, im hoping just lowering the attachment point about 6 inches down the inside of the thigh will fix this, if not ive gotta thick up some other way to keep my "robo trousers" up

the next thing on my "to do" list is to make attachments for the arms and torso now, so im gonna have a play with that so i can make a test fitting video.

ciao for now

update time!!!

I have torn off ALL the plastic attchments at the knees and ankles as they were all starting to break away. I knew they would and it was just a test fit anyway. I noticed that the glue just peeled straight off of the plastic, so i have drilled lots and lots and lost of holes in the plastic to give the glue something to grab onto.

I have also started on the undersuit. i have sew velcro on the shoulder area and attched the other side onto the back piece. also the back piece has velcro straps around the waist section.

The front and back also has four (soon to be 8 when i order more) very strong magnets on each half to hold them together. The plan is to velcro the back on, then just pop the front on.... and it works!

then its just a case of putting an arm half on and using the edge of a door or something to lean againt to pust it up my arm.

Im not going to use straps to keep the arms up (as i wont be abel to fasten them myself and being able to suit up unaided is an aspect of my suit i aim to keep) so instead i think that once i have built the hands, just wearing them will keep the arms from falling down. Unfortunatly i wont know for sure until i build them so well have to wait and see.

I have also attached velcro to the top of the thighs and with a tight belt around my waist they keep the legs up nicely.

Im gonna glue all the hinge attachments back on and reinforce everything then all thats left fitting wise is the codpiece (which is giving me grief) and buying a cheap pair of black shoes to go into the feet permanently.

i will then make a video.

stay tuned!

oh and before all the hinges were torn out i could resist trying it all on....

fuck me its beautiful! (pardon my french!) no pics tho, gonna keep ypu in suspence until i do the video |)

I'm am looking forward to this.

Meathead, what are you going to do to protect the cardboard? I'm guessing like your earlier version you will paint it but is there anything else you can do to keep it safe?

Think like varnish on wood. It would be a shame for all your hard work to be ruined by some rain or an unfortunate mishap.

at present the plan is to use pvc tape to carefully and neatly cover everything (yes it will take almost forever)

I know this method will not be bang on perfectly smooth, but neither is cardboard anyway and at present it looks ok right....

Also im gonna push the boat out and get the widest tape i can find so there are as few imperfections as possible.

If you go back a few pages you will see I already did the abdominal section using this method.

Im not going to fibre glass it, im not going to plastic coat it and im not going to paper mache it. The cardboard as is is more than strong enough, but it wont wake paint as is, and isnt water proof so rain and/or sweat will kill all my hard work. So covering it in tape (inside and out) will give me a good base for painting and make everything a tad stronger and watertight.

yo yo yo!!!

Here are a couple of pics of the attachments:


This is a velcro strap on the inside of the thigh. It is glued on about 6 inches down, any higher and it severly restricts my leg movements. The part that is glued is also about 6 inches long and afte it was stuck down has also had cardboard glued ontop of it and hopefully it will hold!

and this is the back piece:


The velcro strap on each shoulder fastens it to my undersuit. The front is then simple attached by magnets (4 at present but want to install more). In the pic the magnets have been covered by a thin sheet of cardboard (thin grey rectangles near the velcro) to prevent the magnets pulling away from the piece.

So what else have I done? I have now reattached all of the joints, and as a result im down to my last glue stick... again (ordered more already:)) The legs have been reassembled and I have finally gotten round to building the other leg piston!

So, finally, the moment you have been eagerly waiting for (i hope...) the video of me wearing what I have built so far!

PLEASE NOTE

I intend to hold the arms up with no straps, instead i was hoping that just having the gloves on would keep them up, but as i havent made the gloves yet i needed an alternative for the purpose of the video... Batman gauntlets!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPP7JxDAouM&list=UUxfsmJ1PYxWamP-l2OsIrFw&index=1&feature=plcp

As you can see it all fits and moves pretty well... all except for the cod piece, so when my glue gets here i will adjust it accordingly and also sew onto my undersuit velcro for the abdominal bands between the codpiece and torso.

Thats all for now!

Thanks, give it a bash, all you need is cardboard, someting sharp and glue... oh and a lot of time and patience. If i can do it (and i never took art at school or college or anything) then anyone can do it!

Hello again!

Ive got a few pics of the basic jist of the gloves. Sorry it took so long but I need to do some careful planning for he hands to make sure they fit properly and work how i want them (they are cardboard and not latex after all)




Robo fist!


The robo-glove holding a robo size gun for size comparison, looks just about right. I know i have an Auto-9 pistol, but at present it is... inaccessable...

So i have since dismantled the glove and laid out all the parts ready for making duplicates for the other hands.



Now its just a case of cutting out all the parts, putting them all together, and then adding all the details, all 3 times.... gonna be fun.

next update when i have made some decent progress on the gloves.

Mighty I started my suit with the gloves. I used a rubber glove as a base as it gave me something to build around that was really flexiable. Cant wait to see how you make them as I found them a real bitch LOL

Cheers for the PT! (Been a member for years and still dont really know what they do...)

I was considering using some sort of glove for the base, but then gave up on that idea when i starting toying with other plans for the gloves to make them as awesome as possible, and if i can get them how i want them, they will be the most awesome robo gloves ever (yes modest i know :P)

Today i spent about 2 hours just building up the detail on the fingers, and all i got done was like 3 of them (not including closing the ends) so they are taking ages, and as they are all the same its very monotinous, but i shall persist and hopefully tomorrow i have enough fingers done for a whole hand.

also had an interesting idea for finising the suit involving highbuild primer, but will buy a can and have a play before i bore you wth any details!

Cheers for the PT! (Been a member for years and still dont really know what they do...)

I was considering using some sort of glove for the base, but then gave up on that idea when i starting toying with other plans for the gloves to make them as awesome as possible, and if i can get them how i want them, they will be the most awesome robo gloves ever (yes modest i know :P)

Today i spent about 2 hours just building up the detail on the fingers, and all i got done was like 3 of them (not including closing the ends) so they are taking ages, and as they are all the same its very monotinous, but i shall persist and hopefully tomorrow i have enough fingers done for a whole hand.

also had an interesting idea for finising the suit involving highbuild primer, but will buy a can and have a play before i bore you wth any details!
