To build the robot, follow the instructions in the materials section.

How to follow the 3D instructions

At each step, you will see a list of the required parts in the top left corner. This includes the length of the parts and how many you need.
In the center of the screen, you will see how to connect the parts.

Sometimes, no parts will be shown in the top left corner. In this case, you just need to rotate the robot to a new position.
The first and last steps usually show the fully assembled robot.

Make sure your parts are oriented the same way as shown on the screen!

How to control the 3D view

Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move to the next or previous step.
Use the left mouse button to rotate the model and view it from different angles.
Use the right mouse button to move the model left or right.
Use the scroll wheel to zoom in and zoom out.
Below the instructions, you will find the "Autorotate" button, which turns automatic rotation on or off. Try both options to see what works best for you. By default, it is turned on.
