OK,

the sorter is done.

I figure I'll work on the easy part.  Brick extraction from the rice.

pant....... pant........ pant......

whose stupid idea was this?  I mean, do any of you GET how hard this
is??

in the past hour I've gone through 3 proto-ideas.... and the best one
that at least get me blocks to the wall of the INSIDE of the pit, ONLY
covers at best 10% of the volume of the ENTIRE PIT!!!

I have not even bought rice yet.

this is one of those prototypes that is not even motorized. I push it
around with my hand, like a little boy who plays with toy cars. (all but
vroom vroom noises!)

The good news is that if this is "hard" for me, then it must be KILLING
calum!

:)

(...) Ha! (...) Yup. But I'm pessimistic. :) (...) Phew. At least I'm not the only one who is finding out that 24" is HUGE. Iain (who doesn't have enough pieces) (21 years ago, 30-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Here here. So far it is the hardest game I made a robot for. I don't know if my 3rd prototype arm will work, or just give me a twisted axle when it try to paw through the rice. (21 years ago, 31-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
