Super-Cool Repurposed Robots

Posted on | April 20, 2010 | 3 Comments

Middle school teacher Brian Marshall has a passion for repurposing vintage housewares into cool little robots that he then adopts out to good homes. What started as a hobby, has evolved into an enormous project, with hundreds of robots made from all kinds of cool (and recognizable) found objects.

You can see a lot more of Marshall’s robots on his Flickr page and if you are inclined to adopt one of the bots, you can do that through the Adopt-A-Bot Etsy shop.
