For the record, I'm almost embarrassed to say this because of all the hype, but it took me about 1 night to build it AND program it. MAYBE 3 or 4 hours. I think I spent more time on the web site than on the robot.

It sounds hard.
Over lunch I went home and threw a robot together. It took me longer to build the 20 blocks, than to build a robot to stack them all.
I guess it wasn't as challenging as I thought.

I already stripped it down for parts.
However, I may have a problem with my design. My current stacker launches them up in the air, so my modified LegWay can run under them and balance them atop the RCX. But now, I have to figure out how to replace the EOPDs (custom sensor) with standard light sensors.

Can anyone else imagine the Cat in the Hat with a stack of coffee cups & saucers balanced on his nose?

Nov. 9. the library opens at 9am... and if you arrive early you don't have to share table space. also the lights in the library play havoc with light sensors so you will need to readjust (...)
