Hi everyone,
Thanks for the people who liked my steering. That really was the only good
part about my robot. I thought the rest was hopeless... I will bring it (just
the steering mechanism!) to the dinner on Friday. I can also bring the window
walker, if anyone wants to see it up close. Hopefully we don't have to be so
segregated in our trains vs. robots groups. I, for one was absolutely awestruck
at the train1 video. Way to go Iain! So here is how I would like to bridge the
gap... I want to come to the train2 event, but I want to have something to
offer. Obviously, since I own zero town and zero train, that means it has to be
technic... How about a gantry crane or a drawbridge?? Is there anything else I
could build out of technic?? Something with pneumatics?? An RCX powered 14 wide
train??? No seriously, I would like to contribute something:)
Rob

| (...) I think it's all in good fun. I doubt at all train/robots will ever be two separate groups, there's too many folks who like both. Even I will make an attempt at a monkey robot even if I've intended to stop doing robots overall :) I'm sure (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
