Ball body scratch-built from paper mache & canvas on a beach ball. Wonderful use of everyday objects. No 3D printing or CNC. I'm impressed!

    This looks like a new use for the Arlo robot. Put it in a ball and watch it go.

    Soldering wires to Li-ion batteries to make a battery pack? Yikes! Kids, don't do this at home! There's a reason these batteries are spot-welded to make battery packs, not soldered.

    Still, an impressive project.

    Well, I'm impressed! The vast majority of adults would not have the smarts, patience, and perseverance to complete such a project. An amazing young man.
