submarineFor 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.

Logbot 3000

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.

Bookcase Bot

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.]
