Thanks for the inspiration, I hadn't thought about the jetski handlebar piece.
I'm now building 'bots with serious eyebrow problems.
My favorite: take the Gasgano 'fig. Remove the head. Stick on a
handlebar-on-a-clip. Turn two of the arms around, so the elbow sticks forward.
Lean the body forward. Rotate the handlebars slightly back from upright. Twist
the clip slightly to one side, to indicate a listening stance.
Presto! Instant monkey-bot. :)
