Chain Monster - a SPIKE Prime Box Robot commanding the attachments with chains

We took a stab at building a box robot entirely with chains. It is difficult to find these chains. They were part of the original LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Robots, but we had an idea. Can we power the whole box robot and all the attachments with the chains. This allows us to do a nice demonstration when and how chains could be used.

To build the robot you will need about 180 of these the chain pars - 3711a. They could be found from NXT and from some technic sets.

This robots require additional parts on top of the LEGO Education SPIKE Prime and LEGO Education SPIKE Essentials. Check out the additional parts required.
