One of my favorite tv shows of all time is battlebots. The reason I love the show so much is it’s really interesting to see all the different robots and the way they are built. But probably the biggest reason why I enjoy the show so much, is it’s fun to see the robots get smashed up and thrown around the arena. Also the arena itself is built in a really fascinating way, it has saws on the ground and long moving screws on the inside walls to also trap the robots. Overall it’s just an amazing show!
I do have an all time favorite robot on the show, it’s name is tombstone. He is by far my favorite because he it built really well, looks cool and he is very unique. Because of watching the show and tombstone so much I got the inspiration a couple of weeks ago to try to build my own replica. So one morning my Dad and I drew up some plans real quick and then headed off to buy the supplies. After two weeks of cutting, sanding, drilling and painting we ended up with a pretty amazing finished product. Here are some pictures and even a short video clip.

Grandpa Skype says this is pretty cool!
Pretty awesome Michael. Have you watched Forged In Fire? Pretty cool show, they have to make knives and swords from raw metal. Have a great day! Gruncle Roy
Way to go Michael and Dad! What a clever and intricate construction! Shadow seems to think it was built for her.
