S.C.R.U.-F.E.: A Budget-Friendly, Ultra-Simple Robot for Young Makers and Programmers to Enjoy! Watch our beginner-friendly robotics project in action on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/-_pw6N5LGGA Help us keep the SCRU-FE resources flowing by sharing your projects, modifications, codes, and videos with our community of young programmers! We aim to make coding a breeze for elementary and middle school students without breaking the bank! This affordable robot project started when my 2-year-old daughter fell in love with her father's old ultrasonic robot from grade school days. The vintage bot is missing parts and won't work anymore, but she took good care of it since she was 1 year old! For her 3rd birthday, I set out to build a budget-friendly robot under $50 that we could make together. Every part costs less than $10, and most are easily found or open-source! The result is Scruffy, a fun-loving bot adored by my daughter. We made up the silly acronym S.C.R.U.-F.E., fitting his quirky appearance. Instructions for Your Own SCRU-FE Robot Materials: 1. Printed Body 2. Printed Servo Arm 3. Printed Sensor Mount 4. Two 3D-Printed Wheel Halves 5. Arduino UNO 6. Uno Motor Shield (with buzzer, Ping, and servo inputs) 7. Two Smart Car Gearmotors and Wheels 8. Two AA Battery Holders 9. Switch 10. SG-90 Micro Servo Set 11. HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor 12. Female/Female 4-Pin Cable 13. High-Ampere Toggle Switch (15A) 14. 25mm Wire Sections (for motors) 15. 2x F623 Bearings 16. M3 Screws for Motors, Neck, Wheel, and Arduino 17. Washers for Wheels 18. Nylon Locking Nuts 19. Small Rubber Bands Tools: 1. Allen Key Set (2mm-2.5mm-2.5mm) 2. Phillips Screwdriver 3. Slotted Screwdriver 4. Soldering Iron with Small Tip 5. Drill Bit for Holes and Toggle Switch 6. 1.5mm Drill Bit Building Tips: 1. Use a drill bit to enlarge holes on the body (except UNO mounting holes). 2. Apply washers or spacers between wheels and lock nuts to ensure clearance. 3. Refer to our example code for programming assistance. Please modify it as needed. Enjoy your DIY robotics experience with SCRU-FE, and help us create a fun-filled learning journey!
