In this video I build the HYDRAULIC ROBOT ARM kit. I show you step by step how I made this amazing water-powered mechanical arm. There is no motor and no batteries; it is purely powered by a DIY hydraulic system. The video is fairly long so I've split it into bite-sized chapters: links below. At the end of the video there are demonstrations of the gripper arm and the suction cup functions. Enjoy!
