I recently designed an RC skid steer that’s fully compatible with MakerWorld Cyber Bricks. The whole project came together surprisingly smoothly — I wrapped the entire build in just 14 days.

It was massive, challenging, and incredibly rewarding once everything finally came together. After finishing the excavator, I wanted both machines to really stand out. I’d had great experiences with Justway.com...
