The boys watched a Lego Robotics presentation at the library last week – which has inspired Jon to make his own robots.  He took apart a broken nerf gun to get the scope light out – attached to the front, with a switch to turn on the laser beam. It slides back and forth to be a flashlight or a laser.  Then he put on the tires from the Knex package to have it move forward on it own.  I don’t have a picture of the work in progress so far – he’s been adding arms and levers all over. Very fun to be inspired!

Notice the necklace?  Last month he changed his name to JonyLego and made a “name tag”.

Notice the Laser?

Update April 3, 2010 – finally around to posting pics of his craft –
