      Haven’t done that yet, as I am just programming the robots. However, after I submit my thesis, I should have more time to experiment different things, and will definitely build all sort of robots.

      Oh brilliant questions.

      This is my favourite thing to do, i buy old gadgets and tech from charity shops and stalls. and I take them to bits.

      I am building a sound bar (not a robot) out of speakers I have salvages from old radios and things. I have lots of them now so I can do some cool things with them 🙂

      I also have lots of motors, from things like CD and tape players, but the motors don’t match so I can’t use them on a robot just yet.

      I have also recycled lots an lots of LEDs (tiny lights) which I plan on making into a cool lighting project when I am done with the sound bar. Or maybe I’ll just make the sound bar covered in cool lights 🙂
