Finally got around to taking photos

Just enjoying my robots movement #maker #robot

RHAPSODY N BERSERK

The Botanists Had a lot of fun making this one

If i passed out, my robots would be useless. #robot #maker (im fine this is just me having fun with my bots)

This photo was taken at open sauce this year. I can not recommend this event enough. It felt like maker faire 2018

Forgot to post this here from thr opensauce event this past weekend #maker #robot

All 3 crawlers, each being controlled differently this was a fun project but excited to take the next step in my work. #maker #robot #wip

trying to get the robots together for a photo its like herding cats #maker #robot

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn't from Star , Star Trek, Doctor Who, or Transformers.

WAVE (Webb-Inspired Actuated Visual Effects) in action earlier today at #LiverpoolMakefest

Was sad this weekend so I built a bubble pipe #maker

Just got this new robot "patch" working still a W.I.P. #maker #robot

Family photo for my Day of Birth

New comit crawler v2, took me 7 days to put this together. It's mostly an ego build, aka I wanted to test if I could make a new crawling system within a week. I did it 😄 small wins. #maker #robot

Took Lugnut out on a play date. With fellow robot maker davis #robot

I don't take enough pictures with my #robots

LUG Nut has some fun moves #wip #robot #maker

The diffusers on the new LED polyhedron (dihedral hexacontahedron, right) looked so much better than the first build that I had to print new ones for the truncated icosahedron (left). I also synced up the patterns (with #pixelblaze) and will be sitting here staring at them for the rest of the day.

Been working on this new little robot for around 3 days it's a hexapod that also works as a tool box. #Maker #robot

it was private but its back up :D

And lo, the trailer did drop: www.apple.com/tv-pr/news/2... #murderbot

Normal day to day robot stuff. #robot #maker

Closer, look at my newest robotic project, Comit Crawler, or Comit for short. It still has some errors I'm working on, but we have gone far #maker #robot

My latest project Comit, the quadrapod robot. #robot

Took Digit out for a field test. #robot

Walking test for Digit. #robot

Family photo from last night's event

Wip, doing a wearble test, I need to move some stuff around but so far so good #maker #robot #wip

Some waking test #robot #wip

Finally got Digit to crawl forward. Took me a week of work. #maker #robot #wip

Orbit_v3, outside test #maker #robot #engineering

This song has been stuck in my head for days. Also, Orbit v3 is almost done. The tread system is amazing. #robot

Today's is digit Bday, it's been a whole year since I made the 1st one

Finally got Treads on my robot Orbit

It's that time of year where I spin up the flywheel of effort that runs There U Glow, a femme & queer created, run and centered LED-focused electronics camp. ⚙️ 🦾 Honestly, it's a balm and incredibly vital vibe in these horrifying techbro times. Stay tuned if you are interested! thereuglow.club

I’m afraid you haven’t been properly introduced. This is Crocus. Crocus is… enrapturing. @ericstrother.bsky.social designed the mask. @ryepony.bsky.social printed it. @evilgeniuslabs.org made the light arrays. I did the paint. #cryptid #deer #skull #mask #monster #kink #costume

Working on a "Beanie Bots" #CompanionBot concept :) As simple as possible w/ an old LightBlue Bean & @alpenglow.bsky.social Coin Cell Power adapter. Also resurrecting the LBBean ecosystem as much as possible! It'll go on @hacksterio.bsky.social, but for now, build thread: bsky.app/profile/alex...

Doing a face tracking video for orbit so people can see the level they are at. I need to get them moving and driving soon #robot

Most of my videos are now longer than 1min so can't show them here #bhm #maker

ok I need some help, anyone know how to portably power a raspberry pi 5, I know it needs 5v at 5amps #help

Little hopecore video i made

Announcement: We're pleased to announce that Giant Robot FM will be covering Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX weekly when it premieres in 2025 (as if there was any doubt)! We'll save the fine details for later. In the meantime, we'll be busy coming up with a name for the new pod. Any ideas?

Thinking about doing some live streaming of me working on the digikey YouTube. Thoughts? #maker
