♥ Ecobots Cutting Process

Plastic! They come in all shape and sizes, in every colour of the rainbow. We needed kinds of plastic of different shapes and sizes for the parts of our robot. Thus, we scavenged around our houses to see what bottles or buckets that were to be thrown away that we could use. Our search came up with dustbin covers, old buckets, as well as several soft drink bottles made of hard plastic. Thus, we headed back to the 'bengkel' to cut the plastic materials into the desired shape.
