Decide what you want it to do, design it, make it, redesign it remake it... continue until it suits your needs.
It all depends on what the purpose of the robot is. Different functions have different designs. Different designs require different budgets. Is it autonomous or teleoperated? Is it stationary or movable? There are many questions you need to ask yourself when designing and building a robot.
For a start there are many different types of robot, i am actually working on a project to build a humanoid robot myself. But the first function after deciding how big, what you want it to do and so on is to create a 2d servo plan. Servos are two-way motors which move the body parts of the robot. You need to briefly draw out what positions these need to be in, label them the design the controller and label each command. A different command is need to how hard you push buttons and for each angle in an analog stick. Label each of these and for each of these, show what servos will move how much and in which order, a physical scaled version can me made from materials such as wood, but these need to be able to move in the exact way you robot can. Record the angles of each movement, in what order, how fast and so on, take in mind some programming will be involved as the robot will need to move 2 and a half steps then check if the controller is telling it to continue walking, this will need a different command as the robots foot will be in the air, if the controller shows to stop walking, a different command will be needed to use from when the controller is neutral when standing and when the foot is in the air after walking. This will be needed to put into binary (110010110101110) and into a CPU, connected to the servos.

It depends on how simple you want the robot to be. It could be as simple as a battery a DC motor and wheels or a simple robot with legs that are controlled with a micro-controller.
Wood is probably the best material to build a robot out of since it is very inexpensive and light weight. The good thing is after you are done with the wood you can use it for almost anything you need it for so there you are. So yea wood is probably the best material to use when building a robot.
There are many websites that provide users with information on how to make a home made robot. Let's Make Robots's website provides users with step-by-step instructions on how to build a robot.

You can build a robot from trash or recycled stuff. Thanks!!!
What robot?
The Build-a-Rocot activity on Moshi Monsters has expired.To build the robot, you had to get a code for each robot part. A new code was released each day during the activity. After each code expired, you could purchase a robot part in one of the stores on Moshi Monsters. Since the activity has expired, the robot parts are no longer available.
One can find a tutorial on how to build a robot from the following sources: Multiplo Talk, Society of Robots, Instructables, Robot Shop, Lets Make Robots, to name a few.
a toystore, a tamiya (build your own robot pack) and a Tekno version of a horse robot and Butterscotch product...
The Build-A-Robot event on Moshi Monsters has expired and you can no longer get the codes for the robot.

they design a body and then software for the computer inside the robot itself to run on.
