SURVEYOR 2 FROM SCRATCH: PROGRESS SO FAR

 Having fun banging together more household bits to fashion a type of SpaceX Surveyor 2.

The main body is an old stapler with cartridges of staples on each side. The exposed engine is a vintage shaver head with side screws glued on.

The radar includes drawing pins and the grabber arms are odd items from my bits box. The pilot is a HO panzer driver I think.


The balloon tyres are Kinder egg cases. I'm making another set out of guitar volume knobs too. Not sure which will work.


The undercarraige holds a pair of basic paper axle holders. The axles will be wooden kebab sticks. All painted silver.

This model hasn't been that easy so far. I'm hoping for a smooth finish!
