Now, cut the robot out with your coping saw, I clamped it down to my counter top and then cut it out. Don't worry about rough edges or square-ish legs, because you can file them out later

Once its cut out clamp it to the counter and file the edges to make it look better. Then I sanded the top to make it smooth and look better.
