I've been watching the whole series, very inspiring stuff, even when you're not building a robot. Just follow your goals & dreams and don't let anyone tell you you should do something normal like everybody else...
Good job, after watching this little vid I understand exactly how he did it. I might try my hand at building a small one myself. (Quite sure he has a patent out on this one, so no, there will not be selling it).
I love how you're building a giant robot in your shed, out of scrap aluminum, and the U.S. military still uses ground troops... You are, in every respect of the word, 100% awsome
After going to you website and seeing the other robots you've built in action, I have no doubts your giant 'bot's maiden voyage will be a smashing success. Thanks for sharing your madness!! (Tarzan yell)
I have been watching your videos since i stumbled upon grp number 7 I believe. its been such an adventure watching all your videos since than and seeing how much you and your projects have progressed in the last few years. thank you for the Journey Jamie and I look forward to watching more videos in the future.
@mem7048 check out some grp clips from the start jamie designed it so it could be disassembled and be transported in his truck, i doubt it would fit in his truck all in one go but it should be small enough to fit trough the door =)
Awesome. Baby's first steps. Man, you are going to get that again. But you are going to have to wait for that. But really awesome job. Knew you could do it.
Well, I was definitely wrong... When you first started this project, the way you went about it (without any type of blueprint) I was almost certain that something that large would have problems with leverage and being able to hold itself up (smaller systems tend to have less force acting upon them then the full scale version) but, after watching for the last year, I am thoroughly impressed.
Oh boy this has really been the best thing to ever come to Youtube. Thank you for sharing it jaimie and let me say I cannot wait to see your GRP ambulatory :-)

Why did you take the cool compound bow pulley-cable-spring contraptions? Did securing the roller assemblies in place somehow remove their purpose?
