You know you're a roboteer when.....

- When you scour ebay buying aluminium billet for robots you haven't designed yet.
- When your neighbors come out to ask if your robot is working now after hearing a large crash/explosion.
- When you buy a milling machine, but haven't bought a washing machine for the house you've been living in for 2 years.
- You have more hardox in your house then cutlery.
- You use a screw driver as a coffee stirrer.
- Your soldering iron lives on the kitchen table
- You only have a hair dryer for shrink wrapping batteries
- You use the toaster to shrink wrap batteries when you can't find the hair dryer
- You set the smoke alarms off when you next use the toaster because it's set on flamethrower setting for heat shrinking.
- You fix injuries with duct tape.
- You have a set of Hawker SLA's in your car in case you need a jump start.
- You post in all the Your a roboteer when... threads.

You know you're a roboteer when:

You clip your nails with wire cutters
you use an antweight to clean the table (Stewie works wonders

)
Your bedroom side table is covered in duct tape and solder reminants
When you use Bluetooth and think 'I'm using Spektrum technology'

when you have roboteer contacts in your phone.

when your putting your shoes on and you find a bolt and say So thats where it ended up!

When you look at a piece of metal and think of it as a batting ram on your robot.
