One of the things we’ve loved about the Make: Robot Build is the innovative ways in which people have approached the CD media build material. We’ve mentioned this already, but I think this is so sweet, the way Steve Joiner used a CD spindle to create a cutting jig and then cut a series of CDs down to create some really nice wheels, with wide rubber bands for tires.
BTW: The 7th Robot Build newsletter has gone out to subscribers. We’re now in the final phase of the contest, final building and project submission. If you have a bot for the contest and it’s ready to go, please submit it ASAP. The deadline is May 7th, but we can use the time, if your bot is ready, to begin the evaluation.
And don’t forget: Everybody that submits a build gets a free Maker’s Notebook!
See all the details about the contest on the Make: Robot Build landing page.
