Yes it fell down and went boom.
Don’t worry, I just booked a show for Jama in the local town square.
I’ll get the robot back together.
Thank you for the kind words too.
I always felt the hips and upper leg sections needed to be refined.
Other than the relative fragility of the head the entire Robot is rock solid and
the preformance is one of the excellently cool things about it. I have observed
that after many hours of use, the mechanical sections need to be “tuned up”.
Meaning the the drive axles and rotating parts get compressed and slow
preformance. Things like gears and bushings need to be reset so they spin
freely. The lateral forces along the axles cause the components to bunch up
causing friction.
In some places, it is a big job to tune up.
In the midst of the rumble, on the white pillar, I founnd a clone 1x1 brick that
somehow made its way in to Jama during construction. It got past me and my
sorting bots. So now because it fell, I found the bad bad brick hiding in my
REAL LEGO Robot. Like Jama cast out the bad, or it went on self destruct or
something. (see the picture and the 1x1 on the pillar)
As always, thank you for your support and kind words.
K should write a story about the casting out of said clone brick.
What does a robot do when it realizes it does not like one of its parts?
