Unfortunately, this does not show him walking,.
Sandman uses a small victor speed controller for driving the two wheelchair motors for forward and backward movement. All the control system were handmade using old magnetic tape drive computer parts, servos, relays,micro switches and motors. The mouth is extended and retracted using a boat hand winch. I modified the winch by adding an electric motor and several tilt switches. He carries a SCUBA and propane tank inside for running his pneumatics and flamethrowers. Two diesel electric batteries are mounted under his pivoting front end for 24 volt electrical power. Gasoline can be injected into the flamethrowers with a flip of a switch.
