Hydraulic Robo-Slab
The single complaint I hear the most from mad scientists all over the world (you wouldn't believe the comments I get) is "I'm so tired of going to Science Depot or Bad Science Warehouse - and finding nothing but cheap crap!"
Well, the boys from Brotronic Labs (sculptor Greg Brotherton) are back at work - this time coming up with a surgery table that makes you want to say "Give my creation LIFE!"
(From Brotron Labs)
"Tired of surgery tables that crumple like tinfoil under the thrashing of a damaged robot? Then you need the Brotron Hydraulic Robo-Slab. Whether your fixing a delicate replicant or shock blocking a seizure on a three ton smashbot this is the table for you. Made from Brotonium a practically indestructible space metal, the Brotron Robo-Slab comes equip with; a seven ton magnetic field restraint, a 50THz decontamination lamp, a variable 6000 rpm bone saw, TIG welding arm. and a push button remote for tilt and roll."If you like this baby, you'll also enjoy reading about another hit from the boys at Brotron: the Rolls-Royce of atomic weapons -Electrolux Death Ray.
