Here's what the robot ant will look like when it's finished:

Here's how to build it:

You can add any kind of ant head you like.

Note: The ant needs quite a lot of power to lift itself up and down as it walks. You may need to use fresh batteries in your motor's power box. If you reverse the direction the motor spins (by using the switch on the power box), the ant will walk forwards and backwards.

My Robot Centipede is a variation on the Robot Ant. Each pair of legs forms a module. You can add as many modules as you like (or have parts for).
