This is my favorite bot of all your builds. Very helpful friend for you, but probably a devastating final boss on the junk planet.

Uncle Bill, your work is on a whole different level. Texture, color choice and (the best part) the incorporation of cheap items one may never consider for such a project. From one Star Trek fan to another, I hope you never get burnt out doing this, because I am eating it up. And I know I'm not the only one.

With this build particularly I absolutely love how deranged it looks pre-priming. The white and blue and pink, the rhinestones and the green wire really speak to me.
I love it! Watching you is like a day with grandmother in the 70’s. Back then we used pill bottles, TV guides, medicine cups, beads, paper clips and cigarette packages. We made a lot with very little and it was always fun!

Bill, I was going to make a comment about how we all need a little help from our friends; but when we don't have friends we have to make friends. Some of us take that statement more literally than others. Anyhow, KZread comments can be a little passive-aggressive sometimes and I wouldn't want to contribute to that. :) In all seriousness your videos always bring a smile to my face and brighten my day. Please keep up the good work and I love the idea of building a little hobby helper.

I think you can pop out any of the connections on the arms if they keep getting in the way. I realize I'm posting this halfway through the video and you likely are finished the build already, but just in case you have any time travel tech, maybe that will help. Cool!
