Does CT have a lot of these?? I'd pay 1.50 US each for: - as many copies of 2885 as I can get (up to 30) (love those drawers) - and up to 5 copies of 2872. (for the kitties, mostly) if you pay shipping... slow shipping is fine. That's not too bad a (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)

I was considering the same thing; there are a few advantages of using rotation sensors: - They would measure all degrees of tilt, but any circuit interrupted type (touch sensor, rod & ring, etc.) will only sense a single angle. - They could sense (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
