How To Make a Recycle Robot

Hey Guys!
I recently make a video on how to make a Recycle Bot. The first time I made one was at my school, it was for home E.C.class. My home E.C. teacher had a couple boxes of things that we could use to decorate our robots. In one of the boxes was a bunch of electric parts. Being the geeky kids that we are, my friend and I put TONS of electronics on our robots. Most of the other students just decorated their robots with felt and markers. I have a feeling that me and my friend's robots will stand out from the other robots when we display them at the school open house. :)
Here is the video:


Thanks for reading!

I have recently got a new lego set called "Escape From Mirkwood Spiders". It is in the Lego Hobbit series and is very cool.Here are a couple of pictures to show you the set.

The Complete Set

In The First, Bigger Tree There Is A Mechanism That Can Shoot A Spider Out

Fili And Kili Are Stuck In Spiders' Webs!

If You Pull This Rod...

The Tree Will Fall, Releasing Fili And Kili
There Are Two Spiders With Movable Legs

The Spiders' Eyes And A Couple Of Other Parts Glow In The Dark

Here Are The Minifigures (From Left To Right - Tauriel, Legolas Greenleaf, Fili, and Kili)

My Set Came With These Extra Parts (Lego Usually Includes A Few Extra Of The Little Pieces Scene They Get Lost Easily) I Do Not Promise That You Will Get The Extras Though

This set is great! I give it 10 out of 10 stars. I give it a building difficulty level of 7 out of 10. Any lego fan or Hobbit fan would love this set. It has a lot of great features and is overall a great set.

The Portland Aerial Tram


During My holiday travels this week I went on The Portland Aerial Tram (Link to their website here).
It is a very cool ride that takes you above Portland, Oregon. Here are some pictures:

The tram with Mt. Hood in the back round
Wow! I can't believe all the 15 or so people on the tram were held up by that rope!
A picture I took of the Amazing view on the tram!

Another picture of the great view

My trip on the Tram was AMAZING! If you are in Oregon I highly recommend going on the tram.
