This is very similar to:

I was originally going to build this as the link recommended - but I

The Carpet Crawler is a small robot which will shuffle its way across
your floor. Watch the video, and you will see how it got its name
(that, and I'm an old prog rock fan at heart!).

Instructable posted by

A Solar Engine
is a circuit that takes in and stores electrical energy from solar
cells, and when a predetermined amount has accumulated, it switches on
to drive a motor or other actuator. A solar engine is not really
an 'engine' in itself, but that is its name by established usage.
It does prov... read more »The Most Useless Machine EVER!

I had been rolling this idea around in my head for quite a while-
Robot Action Figures made from pop/soda cans. When the

Decorating stuff for the holidays takes way too much time. You have to
string stuff up and attach this shiny thing to that thing and it blows.
That's why the best way to get into the Christmas spirit as fast as possible
is with a Christmas Cannon.
The Christmas Cannon is a pneumatic cannon that ... read more »fungus amungusHow to make air muscles!
Instructable posted by
Honus
I needed to create some actuators for an animatronics project I'm
working on. Air muscles are very powerful actuators that work very
similar to a human muscle and have a phenomenal strength to weight
ratio- they can exert a pulling force up to 400 times their own weight.
They will work when twisted ... read more »HonusInstructable robot jewelry
