I built a giant Tentacle Robot and took it to EMF Camp, and then let everyone have a go on it. This tentacle robot uses giant oblique angled swivelling servo sections made from plywood and 3D printing to move it's body. On top is another tentacle operated by cables with the manipulator on the end. The whole things is wireless (for now) and controlled with ESP Now.
