Howabout an elevator powered by a robot? One robot gets inside and a partner grabs a rope and starts pulling which raises the elevator. It would be a collaborative effort. I think that would be wicked cool.

See, this way you don't have to have any special motorized mechanisms or anything. Basically just a box with a rope that goes up to a high pulley, and then some easy way for another robot to get ahold of that rope.

I'm really liking the idea of robots powering field elements.
