* [[Ultimate Blacksmith | Vulcan/Hephaestus/Hephaistos]] in [[Classical Mythology]]. Of note are the trap-bed he made to catch Aphrodite cheating on him with Ares, the [[Mechanical Horse]]s he built to pull his chariot, the [[Robot Girl]] maids he built to serve him and sing for him, the gold and silver lions and dogs he built to protect the palace of Alkinoos, Eros' bow and arrows of love and hate, Hermes' winged sandals [[Captain Obvious | which allow him to fly]], Helios' chariot, and mechanical tripods which could walk to and from Mt. Olympus.
* [[Our Dwarves Are All the Same | The Dwarves]] in [[Norse Mythology]]. Of note regarding the things which they built are [[Animal Mecha | Gullinbursti]], a mechanical boar made of gold which could travel incredibly fast both over land and underground, Thor's hammer Mjöllnir, which could cause lightning to strike when thrown, and be shrunk down to a tiny size, Odin's spear Gungnir, which could strike any target it was thrown at, Tyr's ship Skidbladnir, which could be shrunk down to a tiny size, a wig for Thor's wife Sif which grew just like real hair, and, most intriguing and disturbing of all, the dwarf brothers [[Magnificent Bastard | Fjalar and Galar]] made magic wisdom-granting mead [[Squick | from a man's blood]].
