How to Build a Large Scale Star Wars AT-AT Walker From Foam Insulation Boards
Pastor Kyle Gilbert is back with an out of this world tutorial on how to build a large scale AT-AT Walker from Star Wars out of foam insulation boards. Kyle used Seamster's wooden AT-AT Instructable as reference for his build. He posted photos of the step-by-step process on Instructables. We previously wrote about Kyle's tutorial on how to build Boba Fett's modified Z-6 jetpack.
