Here’s a great new project I just made: a forklift!

Giganto is a joint effor of several people I know and me. It uses two XL PF motors, several NXT motors, and two NXTs. This is it’s second version, and while it is still not THAT big it’s alot bigger than many robots I have built so far. See more of it on NXTLog Here:

And by the way, the Lego Technic Bulldozer I bought came in the mail today, so some of my upcoming projects are going to have a obvious size difference than my old ones!

Meet the (S)emi (P)ortable (M)usic (P)layer (SPMP)!This is the new hi-tech music player! The iPod now has a rival! Or maybe I should wait till someone buys mine before I say that…Anyways, this is a robot that can carry around your Boom Box wherever you go! It even has a rack to carry all of your CDs. It’ll play mp3s too as soon as LEGO improves the sound capability of the NXT… (hint, hint, LEGO!)And if your music is all on your computer…It will carry that too! More pictures

I Have finally got around to making the video for my previous creations. So here is my First Bot Tankenator. As you can see it can go right over a pile of legos with ease. At the end of the video you can see it fall down the stairs, It really didn’t break very much, unlike some of my other creations that had accidents falling down the stairs. OOPS.

This is a sturdy little robot that I made a while ago that can get over anything. Well, not exactly, but it can get over dictionaries! It has 4 treads that can pivot freely, enabling it to have great traction when driving over books etc. Here’s the movie:

Here it is… my latest creation worth publishing! It’s a sumo bot that was for the NXTLOG sumo challenge that as usual I missed due to the deadline being a couple months before I made this. Oh well, at least I can still post it here! So, pretty much what’s cool about it is traction. It has 6 wheels that give it awesome traction. The only disadvantage is that it drives kind of slowly, but if it collides with the opponent boy are they going down! The program isn’t really worth posting because it just has the robot stay on the table. There is no ultrasonic sensor to seek the opponent because due to limited space in my LEGO room (AKA bedroom) It would detect my dresser and attack it Pictures here.

From NXTLOG:

“One week until NXTLOG reaches 5000 projects!

Gather your NXT components and submit your best design. The NXTLOG moderators will freeze NXTLOG submissions at 4,999 and in one week will choose the robot that best demonstrates the true LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT creative spirit. Will your robot be number 5000?

And to all MINDSTORMS NXT Camera Bot challenge participants, you still have until February 29th to submit your entries.

We will announce both the NXTLOG 5000 and Camera Bot winners the week of March 3rd.

What will you make?”

Hello, I’m NXTMonger, and I would hate to have a post just telling you who I am so here’s one of my projects: It’s called PPS - Ping Pong Shooter. It has a magazine of about seven ping pong balls and can shoot them out quite fast. In the video it’s remote controlled by me.

This is my newest creation that I am currently working on. (Well actually one out of three that I am. HeHe) This is just the first stage of this project, Because it was a little too late at night to continue it. Like all things it will have to be ripped apart and rebuilt so that it is stronger and can support ALOT more weight. This project will use an NXT for its Propulsion and other functions

I am going to make 2 versions of this for similar yet different purposes.

Judging from the pictures can you guess what I am going to be used for? Like I had stated above there are going to be 2 variations of this used for a similar purpose but different at the same time.

One will be for… And the other for…

Leave a comment for what you will think it will be used for.
