This little monster comes out when lunch is ready and does a little dance. A laser-cut box holds the components including one of those incredibly cheap (and expectedly bad) stepper motors attached to a 3D printer belt that drives the little clay figurine. There's a slack bot running on an enclosed Raspberry Pi that orchestrates everything. Finally, the finish is spray-painted paper mache and tea from teabags.
