I had to rip it nearly completly appart to scrape enough motors together to
build my soccer-playing robot for Friday. So it's siting there with axes
hanging all over supported only by wires. Not pretty. :-/
I doubt I will have any motivation to put it back together. Just as Tijs (my
delta robot) is still siting in the box on the floor. I haven't touched it.

I had planned on using a chute. I'd load it up with a fixed number of parts
before starting the automation. Just before I tore it appart, it was running
0.8 sec. per cycle. FAST.
I have a ~1.5 MByte MPEG of it cycling with two of the eventual 3 pick and
place robots at that speed, but unfortunatley I'm not in the mood to upload
it / deal with Execulink breathing down my neck and charging me extra money
for space useage. Sigh.
