Ever thought you could build a robot for just $25? Well, [Paul McCabe] did just that with an adorable little wheeled robot powered by the ESP32! This DIY marvel is crafted from cardboard and hot glue—proof that you don't need fancy materials to create something cool.

So, why not gather some supplies and give it a shot? You might just be the next robotics whiz!
