I got a chance to head back to the Makerspace.

That place is HUGE, when you are trying to carry a laptop computer, motor controller, and camera, ON CRUTCHES!

Anyways, I sat down at the laser and set to work. I had some cheap, thinner material right there, so I thought I'd try making a "prototype" clear case out of the cheap and thin stuff.







It turned out OK for just some scrap material cobbled together. Get the whole story over at my blog.

PS: Keep toddlers away from projects.
