Show & Tell

 

John Walter was looking for wheels for his Hallway robot and went to Home Depot to find rubber wheels. When he brought them home, they smeeld the whole house up (cheap rubber from China containing nasty chemicals). He then decided to machine new custom wheels for his Hallway robot (he was probably looking for an excuse to dust off the old lathe).
