NCS: Sweep-o-matic

Using it's twin vacuum arms, Sweep-o-matic ensures our moon bases and machinery are kept clean from the ever-present lunar regolith, a fine power constantly being churned up by the incessant movement of landers and heavy rovers, which can cover sensors, and block coolant ducts.

More retro robot goodness, this time I was thinking of bots from the 80's, like that Nintendo thingy. Not totally happy with the arms and other details. Might do a different version?

    I thought of ROB also. You must keep doing these. The nostalgia hit I get from them is the best high I've had in years.

    vanugget: as Mr Ocean's (self appointed) manager, i suggest you start stocking up on Burgers, Beer and pretty girls, as, Shannon does not work for 'cheap'.

  14. Apocalust (39 months ago | reply)

    Does Shannon work for cheap girls and pretty beer?

  15. yokomode01 [deleted] (39 months ago | reply)

    ^perhaps, but dont forget the burgers (koala meat of course).

  16. Apocalust (39 months ago | reply)

    I'm a big fan of the 'roo burgers myself.
