Assembly

Materials:

  • 12 Pens
  • Zip Ties
  • Prepared Sleeve
  • Prepared Bladders
Time To Complete: 45-60 minutes. 
Insert one bladder into each of the three sections of the sleeve. Insert 4 pens into each sleeve (one for each long face of the bladder). These allow the fabric to easily slide down the bladder.
  

Slide the sleeve down the pens. Once the pens go all the way through the sleeve, remove the pens and secure the bladders with zip ties on both ends. Trim the zip ties.

 

Glue the top sleeve to the rest of the robot where the divider between the bladders sits. The center of the robot is determined by the bladders not the sleeve.

Wrap each half of the robot with a zip tie. Make sure the robot can crawl and bend upward. Glue the top sleeve to the rest of the robot where the zip ties are and remove the zip ties.
