We did it!
April 1st, 2010

For all you evil doers with submarines. I present the weldor bot unlike human divers this weldor bot is made of wood and therefore impervious to the great depths of the sea and unlike human goons he is easily repaired and he doesn’t get electrocuted. Useful for welding those crack when your clod of a submarine captain you hired from the evil henchmen agency rams your sub into a reef you just toss out this useful guy and he will weld up your damaged hull thus saving expensive personnel for less delicate tasks!

I wish I had one of these. Nothing more frusterating than sitting down only to realize you aren’t quite prepared for the business at hand.

Lumber-Bot
This unfortunate fellow is consigned to a life of cutting down his own kind, programmed to be a Lumber-Bot! He grew a beard shortly after a “chop-chip” was inserted into his motherboard. The beard was not part of the programming, merely a side-effect. Some of the good stuff just seems to come out while I’m supposed to be paying close attention in class…

Mine-Bot
Here’s my first contribution to our Wooden Robot series. I don’t have a fancy scanner like Mike, but if you look closely at the crappy photo I took of my drawing, you’ll see a mountain fellow who’s about to get rich off his invention of a mine-digging robot, powered by a cast-iron coal-burning engine. As high tech as it gets. Wooden-style.

Wooden robots such as Logbot 3000 should always be used for good, never for evil. But try explaining that to a squirrel. If there is one thing squirrels are known for, it is for having their own oppressive agenda of intimidation.
The current theme for our collaboratizations is wooden robots.
I wonder if wooden robots would be any more capable of emotion than a metal robot. For example, Bookcase Bot could be exhibiting signs of sensitivity, or he could just be a jerk. It’s hard to tell.
** [On a technical note, Bookcase Bot is fashioned from hardy oak, with twigs for an antenna. He achieves mobility with tread made from logs and xylophone blocks.]

Here it is, folks. A new blog, complete with new blog smell!
Variety is the spice of life, and with multiple illustrators contributing to the blog, you will be able to enjoy all sorts of sketches and illustrations to blow your mind and maybe even freshen your breath.
And while different authors are posting content, sometimes the sketches may get together and woop it up in one big fiesta of collaboration. Look for awesomeness in the days to come!
