Salvius is partially named after the fact the many of the parts that the robot is made up of were salvaged from damaged appliances and lots of things that most people would just throw away. I have labeled a photo to show some of the major parts of the robot that were recycled from other projects and saved from my trash can. In fact some of the only things that I have purchased so far are minor components like LEDs and electronic parts like the Arduino Uno.
