I just received the K9 flatpack kit.
Blue tape is optional
Some of you know that a couple of years ago I started building a K9 (I thought it better to start with something small and angular before tackling a big curvy monster like the Dalek). I started strong, but things soon got out of hand, and my (then) poor soldering skills really were a major obstacle.
Things have changed quite a bit and there are some excellent robotic kit parts available – including this wonderful flat pack K9 made of sheet styrene. Light as a feather, and should solve a bunch of the issues I had with the original.
And the rest of him...
