Progressive Automations did a very nice writeup on my projects. The article can be found here: http://www.progressiveautomations.com/PA-Blog/post/2013/12/02/Michael-McMasters-Got-an-R4-P17-In-the-Works!1.aspx
Progressive has been my supplier of high quality linear actuators for several years now, and has even sponsored our booth space at conventions. The products are top notch, and they have been very responsive to all of our needs. If you need actuators, this is the place to go!
Welcome! I build, maintain and operate robots for Lucasfilm and Disney. Here you will follow a few of my adventures, as well as some of my current robot projects. Enjoy!

Happy New Year!
I have been neglecting my blog over the last few weeks, as I have been working on a very cool project, which is nearly complete, but I will not be able to share until later in the year. It is another robot and a very cool one for sure.
WALL-E has undergone a few modifications to his track drive as well as the head servos. Next up, a new arm actuator and possibly some motion for his hand.
With the interest in the new Star Wars films, I am once again working on the new R2-D2 and hope to have him complete by the end of this year. There will be a ton of new features and modern electronics, so I am really excited to dig and get the ball rolling!
2014 is going to be another interesting year for sure!
