heroes.add("Jaimie Mantzel");
27 Nov 2008Always looking for new ideas for things to create, I was recently pointed to the "Giant Robot project" of Jaimie Mantzel. Besides the giant robot he's creating, he also works on a lot of other cool things.
He seems to keep some kind of video blog on YouTube. All of those videos are interesting, unfortunately they are out of order.
Here they are, *in* order:
