Hello, I am searching for all the articiles in reference to Animatronics (By that I mean those animatonic type devices that you see in stores that look like some sort of person/monster/ pirate that moves his head and mouth and talks/sounds or sings a song when you press a button)
....................... Reason is ; .............................
I think there neet but I have been searching the net for a particular few charaters that I like to have as Animatronic Figures that when you press a buttom it moves his head or flap its wings or makes a scream monster sound. but I can not found one that does what I want or is to small for my taste.
... So want I want to do and sounds like fun is learn how to make one and build it and but in the voice that I would like.
//////// Now here is the needed help? I Know that T&L had sever articiles on this subject in Nuts and Bolts on how to put one together. How can I search for all the articiles on this Subject in either Nuts & Bolts or Servo./ print them out so I can build one or two to do all this.
/////// Second question is do any of you know of any websites/Books/ etc. that I can get to help me with this task. Please let me know
God Please all that respond the this call, Thank you.

Edwin lives here in Austin and we're both members of The Robot Group Inc. His works have been used in movies and commercial haunts. I recommend you pick up that book to get acquainted with building all types of animatronics. Hope this helps
Vern

Re: Need help with findind all the T&L articiles for Animatr
hay Yern, many many thanks , I really thank you a lot and I will, in dead get the book. I have been interested in robots, antimation for may year. I was raise around NASA in Huntsville and watch them used robots like toys to move the space station hubs around and rockets. Even made an attemp at two where I word on CNC machine the size of football fields. Only one problem a fork lift ran ove one and a SIMI ran over the other. O well Hehehe. For my next trick I want to buld a450 ft godzilla that works hehehe just kiding, but I do want one that is 14 in tall that make sounds, make his eye roll and his back blades turn white or red just before it shoot a 6 in flame out its mouth and move it head. --- Second I want a duck 12 inch tall that can open his wings, move his head eyes and mouth opens and says a few chose words ( hehe I know you know what that sounds likke but I think I will just call my fread. Then I want to move int a more serious project.
