Well am done reading the thread - whew!
Great job by all... It is a collection of trial and error - failure and fix - Great Humor and slight of hand
I did most of what you have done in software, in hardware lol for my build and, of course, I added voice ( robot building habit
) -
Adam - you would like my wifi robot and mouse control interface with video cam.
Jack - I have a new respect for your controller I did not see on DIY forum.
Ben - I was the first guy to identify your vacuum pump at MREA
Paul - I have dialup here in the northwoods but I managed to "track" your progress by looooooong downloads of video lol... A great job!!
What a ride.....
