So where's the first robot if that was the second?

My first robot was a monstrosity made out of plywood and particle board. I had planned to give it six legs but I didn't plan very well and there was only room for 4 legs. It was too heavy to lift itself and it wasn't controlled very well under a BASIC program written on a Commodore Vic20.

The robot was cannabalized, and the motor/screw assemblies you see on the second robot are the same ones from that first robot. The difference is that the second robot has a light weight aluminum body and machined aluminum parts to mount the motors in.
