Hi Steve,
That's a bummer about the camera. I thought that was a really cool idea.
The Connect Four robot sounds really cool too. I don't speak for the whole
club, however, I don't know if the GATS show is the best venue to exhibit it.
Let's hear from the rest of the club on this one....
We discussed doing other events during this upcoming year and everybody is going
to collect ideas then share them with the club at our January meeting. We want
to have the opportunity to show off and display some of our other areas of
interest.
Please keep the ideas and MOCs coming 'cause you always have some phenomenal
stuff.
