Hiyall. I just got my Lugnet posting access working again, so I thought I'd post
a here's-my-Lego-webpage link. Ignore as you see fit :-)
One of my areas of interest is building solar-powered robots (and the necessary
custom mindstorms parts to make them work). I recently put up a page with some
pics of the solar rover I took to NWbrickCon, and some RCX geiger counter
sensors:

Some various related stuff at the main page:

Also at NWBrickCon, the tip of one of my models just barely enters the frame of
a photo of something else in Brick Journal issue 3. That's close to getting a
model in print, but no cigar. Maybe next year :-)
