In order to have the robot spin around quickly and smoothly, Bob May pulled his arms inside the torso. A clear plastic strap was wound around the torso and then pulled off camera, spinning the robot's torso like a top. In the photos above and below, you can easily see this plastic strap running around the top of the vertical portion of the torso. These scenes were filmed on 21 October 1966 on Stage 11
