No problem!

Got an EV Album entry or web page we can look at to see what you're up to?

Note that Dr Larry cautioned against a soft (rubber?) spider between the two lovejoy halves. He's running 72v with a higher current controller, and I believe he torqued a spider to death.

I'm not sure what material ours is, but it seems harder than rubber. Some kind of urethane, I think.
