Hi All,

We're purchasing our own inhouse CNC machining gear in a few weeks, so I've been spending a lot of time doing research on CNC gear, particularly CNC mills and CNC lathes.

During my research, I stumbled across this incredible 6 legged walking CNC robot with a routing bit attached to it's head !

It's one of the coolest bits of custom fabrication I've ever seen.

Video is here ...

I don't like robots at all. Must be the threat planner in me. LOL.

Have you seen the "big dog" robot ? ...

I built this puppy about 5 years ago. Uses standard RC servos, OOPIC controller, sonar navigation.
