Hi
I want to get started in robotics and build some for myself, but I don't know where to start or what tools I may need. I am an electronics engineer with some programming experience in C and assembly and have used VHDL. Before I go to the DIY/model shops and spend my hard earned money on tools I may never need I would appreciate it if you could let me know what tools you have found useful as robot builders.
My tool box currently holds digital multimeter, soldering iron, cutters and other basic circuit board building/testing tools.
Also is there a step by step guide to building a walking robot or robot arm or something similar out in the world that someone can point me to?
Many thanks
Naveed
