 | | ReMix of LEGO NXT Starter Robot
|
|
Hi All, I've just posted an entry on my blog (URL) on a ReMix project using the LEGO NXT Starter Robot kit. I'm creating a PoC (Proof Of Concept) bot that can measure distances using a "STRAIT LINE" eRolling Tape. To see the PoC "Measurebot!" device (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) I guess in this particular instance it's worth what somebody would pay for it. Being someone who's sold a single LEGO piece for two grand, I can see both sides of this. Like you, I wouldn't pay $400 for a set I could easily build from my own (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Hi It's been AGES since I posted anything here. I've searched but can't find info on the following questions: Can I post the entire .dat as part of (at the end of) my message or should I just post a link to where the file is located? (I see there's (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
