Mike, you should have just stayed over in your sandbox playin with yer
bionicles and star wars miniland figs and all that. Because now you’ve hopped
over into the spacebot playpen and shown off a big bad awesome dude that
makes all us other kids feel bad. ;p

Oh, you’re just sore because of what I said about all those squirrels dying of
asphyxiation in outer space. You see, in a squirrel-less future, Tony’s vie for
power goes unchallenged, and thus The Danza reigns supreme! ;-)
Thanks, Ryan!

Another amazing MOC! I watched the videos and I am still amazed that the bot
can actually “process” a tree! That was pure genius!
BTW- the “Oops!” video is not playing correctly, at least on my computer.

Thanks, Brian! My original plan was to have it so that just long plates or tiles
could be feed through him, so that it looked like he was sanding down and
shooting out wooden planks. But, the whole tree idea with he leaves getting
stripped off is much more fun to watch, I think.
Plus, it’s just pretty darn funny to see “logs” being squeezed out of his
backside. ;-)
(I just tried uploading the “Oops” video again, so hopefully it’s working for
you now.)

Dude. You’re a total genius with this stuff. How you continue to combine
engineering and aesthetics in every moc astounds me.

The secret is to build a MOC that’s based on something that has a catchy theme
song that you can hum or sing the whole time you’re constructing it. In this
case, having they lyric “I cut down trees, I wear high heels, suspenders and a
bra!” running through my head was all the inspiration I needed. Thanks, Monty
Python! (And thanks to you, too, Gil, for the compliments!)
