Bricolage Arthrobots
Designer Tom Hardwidge recently started creating Steampunk sculptures. He builds them from deactivated bullets, watch parts, sheet copper, brass and aluminum. Small nuts and bolts create tight but posable joints and wire is used for the anntennae.
If you’d like to own an arthrobot, you can buy or commission one on Tom’s website, or you can try to build them yourself. Just be sure you deactivate the bullet before you solder on the bug limbs. If you are more interested in the process of creating arthrobots, visit his blog.
