Item Cost Weight
Servitor, Strongbox
Small 200 gp 60 lb.
Medium 400 gp 120 lb.
Enhancement
Load-Bearing Suspension 25% 25% base weight

These crablike servitors look like a cross between an overgrown mite and a steamer trunk. Indeed, that’s what they are. Strongbox servitors take the form of a rectangular, iron-bound chest with a mechanikal undercarriage from which protrude six to eight legs, as well as a quartet of ocular lenses, one pointing in each direction. Not especially helpful in a foundry, where a mechanik would lay out his own tools and a servitor would be of use in directly assisting with the work, strongboxes are designed to assist mechaniks working in the field by carrying equipment and tools for them.
