Homemade Robots

Whimsical robots made from old cans, tins, and leftover bits and bobs have become somewhat of a cottage industry lately, and can be found everywhere from Etsy to your local craft show. Here are a few I found recently at a small town art gallery.

The largest robot is 12 1/2 inches tall.

 

 

 

 Mr. Half and Half has a themostat head and arms made from socket wrenches.

 

 

 

The Clock Bot has a vintage alarm clock head and arms made from can openers.

 

 

 

 The tiny T&T robot has a spice box body, a film canister head,

and a clever hat made from a sink strainer.

 

 

They are adorable, and ready to take over the world.
