Pretty much all of the fantastic inventions from YouTube creator James Bruton are bizarre engineering oddities. But when the former toy maker says that one of his wacky omnidirectional rides "behaves weirdly" – a closer look is definitely warranted.

.@XRobotsUK just constructed a 3D-printed robotic AT-AT that is large enough to ride on. hackster.io/news/this-3d-pri…
Thanks for your support!
An AT-AT you can ride on?! @XRobotsUK has done it again! The 3D printed parts of this build were done in our Tough Pro PLA+, a huge asset for a build like this where the parts will take a beating.
