My animatronic praying mantis

Johann adam Kitingan · July 2014

Hi guys, i built this praying mantis out of computer sheet metal,some screws and servos. It's my first one. I've to replace one of the servos on the left arm though because it's lost its teeth grinding on the metal (wasn't paying attention). I'd like to thank Richard Landon, Shannon Shea,Tony Swatton, Rick Gallinson , Peter Wier Clarke David Corrubias, and especially Rick Lazzarini for their amazing tutorials.

Gonna add some other computer bits to make it pretty.

Thanks for your time guys
