Original Hamilton Branch 3 student work from The Paper, February 1978. Historical wording and the printed student credit are preserved.
One Monday evening I suddenly had an idea. I tought all the plans and started to collect the tools. I imagined it would be fun not to have to do any housework.
So I told my family I had to acquire screws, nuts, and bolts. It was a hard task to do. It was Wednesday and I only had three days to work. I had the legs, arms, and head, but I needed machinery, so I informed my family about the news. I had to trust them because they had helped me so much before. When the machinery arrived I was happy. On Friday the robot was almost all ready but I needed the chest part. On Saturday morning about 6:00 a.m. I made it and managed to use my last screw to put it together. Then at 9:00 a.m. I presented it to my family. They observed it and gazed at it. I turned it on and it went in every direction! I tried to stop it but it went haywire. After it stopped I was to blame. My fmaily told me it was too active, so I had to cut down some of the speed in it. I reduced the speed and worried about it. It was very difficult to do but I made it. It worked perfectly. My family agreed it was a good robot.
