Automata Dog Walker (Updated)

Automaton of a man walking his dog. I have revised the mechanism driving his free arm by linking it to his legs rather than the dogs legs. I think that this gives it a more natural motion overall. Website: cphughes-art.ca

Do you sell PDF's for the diagram of this project?

[@automata-maker]

Hi Cathie. Sorry, as my automata are all one-off projects I don't have a set of plans that I could provide. They are made through a combination of crude sketches and a lot of playing around in the shop until I get it right. Thanks, Chris

Good morning, my name is Francisco, do you have any mold or cutting and assembly diagram that you can make available?

[@automata-maker]

Hi Francisco, thank you for your interest. Unfortunately as all of my automata are original one-off projects I don't have detailed plans or diagrams. I start with some simple drawings and do much of the figuring out using prototypes to decide on the final design. I would refer you to Automata Magazine at automatamagazine.com. I think you can download the first year's issues for free. Thanks, Chris
