for all those people who are arriving at my site because they want to know how to make a cardboard robot, well, this URL wasnt bought just to piss people off. there is a project of that very thing which i am in the middle of doing and should be completed in a couple of months, it just isnt here yet, due to me having lots of other work going on.
in the meantime, heres some great robot building sites and pictures ive found around and about:
