Putting together a junk robot figure can be a good way to recycle scrap metal and other junk. You can create a fully new and original creature only with a little touch of innovation. You can bring to use stuffs like wasted tin cans, odd buttons, and old appliances along with used laptop or refurbished laptop. With some unidentifiable objects of trash and a a bit of imagination, you can take on a new life. You can make it as per your taste. All you require is a little bit of administration, and you share some pleasant times with your children in the assembling of the junk robot.

Of course, you will require junk, but there are some few more things that will help you to assemble a junk robot. You will require soldering iron, duct tape, epoxy, nuts and bolts, paints, wires, etc. With all that collected; you can begin by starting the body. Here are some steps to do so.

• Look for some items with which you will be generating the torso. You can use old cans, tins or sardines or anything with ample size to attach a head, arms and legs to.

• Then you will be assembling the feet, arms and legs. Just as your legs should have feet wide enough to stand on, the robot also needs enough balance. Damaged toy cars without wheels, lids from mason jars and other that are wide and flat can do a good job. For forming arms and legs, you can employ any wasted material you like. Use antennas from old televisions or radios or in other case forks and spoons, curved wrenches and railroad spikes can also be some reasonable items for this purpose.

• Now let’s begin with the top. Collect junk parts for your robot’s head. You can make the head out of a doorknob. Certainly, it possess a mouth and eyes. You can even add a nose to make it appear more like a human. For example, you can use a wooden top with square bolts for eyes and a zipper for the mouth or you can use buttons as eyes and a strip of metal for mouth.

• Start assembling your robot using duct tapes. Make slits in the torso with the aid of tin snips and then you can easily stick the head and limbs in to them. Then with the use of epoxy or solder, neatly stick the fragments together.

• Then comes the moment to furnish your robot. Use metallic spray paint all along. It will conceal any imperfections or rusty spots. Moreover, this paint gives your junk robot a typical cyborg look. Most certainly, you don’t want your robot to appear like a heap of junk. For the purpose, you can add fragments of colored plastic, tinsel or anything else that can make your robot appear more awesome.

You can curtail off or add some more steps according to your knowledge and needs. The final appearance of your junk robot will be amazing if you use these steps correctly.
