[MrKG1020]

shadow looks like a bug wiyh a jet pack tumbs up if u see it

[Airsoft109z]

lol. The iBug. Now go out there and sell if for millions! X3

[AthroughZ1thr0ugh9]

if the motor is powerful enough you can cut off the bristles, and make a vibrobot.

[Garretthierisser]

thats a good bot

[BA5L1NE]

You'll never know what hit you... you'll never know what it will hit next.. A wall probably?

[fidolimp]

you can get a motor from any video game controller like a gamecube controller

[dac518]

@fidolimp those are too big

[KrapikMastah]

WOW, Your's seemed to be VERY unstable, good idea with the "legs"

[sasuk3curs3d]

what kind of motor it have

[beegburd]

a pager.

[TheApple128k]

They just use a vibrator from a cell phone, or pager.

[godsmurf0119]

wer can i find that kind of motor

[tehscience]

An old pager or mobile phone is a good place to look, try also a cheap electric toothbrush or one of those vibrating razors.

[HaydenPK]

i like the stabilizer legs that make it look like an insect

[tehscience]

The brush kept falling over without them, or I could have used a bigger brush. It turned out to be a good look for the finished bot, I agree.

[VIRUS0712]

its cooler to have them mini so they can travel with you in your pocket

[maxipinson05]

where could i get the motor excluding the cellphone. because we don't have broken cellphones at home.??

TNXX

[tehscience]

Search ebay for "pager motor", there's plenty to choose from.

[SULJAGRL]

better and cheaper ps2 rumbler

[miragebird]

Sweat, switch the legs for some black legs, color the brush, and put it in someones room. XD

[BFLY3]

were do you get the motors from?>!!

[tehscience]

A broken mobile phone, in this example a Nokia 7110. The phone cost me 99p from ebay, and I was able to recycle the remains and get something from that also.

[BFLY3]

cool thanks for actually answering

[miragebird]

You could also use a bigger one from toys, just attach a weight and use something bigger that a toothbrush. (Comb maybe?)

[Bluenosedwill1]

i use alot of silcone gel in mine. its fish tank sealer. i was using apoxy resin but it just snaps apart with all the vibrations

[whitebreadNbutter]

Really cool! I didn't know whether or not it really did work, or if it were edited. I guess it does work. You have inspired me to make one as well! :D

[tehscience]

I spent a lot of time trying to stop the thing from falling over, hence the out-riggers. I also had some difficulty finding the right type of glue to bond that particular kind of plastic to metal e.t.c. So experiment and take the time to get it working! :-)

[ndekeluka]
