Smooth in function and minimal in build!

Nicely done!

What do you do with the braiding?  Sell it on eBay saying "THis Braid was
knitted by a LEGO Robot!"?

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the note.  My original plan for the braid was to form the core of
braided eight-strand rope. In fact, the machine was inspired by this braider:

I may still build the eight-strander but I've lost a bit of momentum and am
working on some other string machines at the moment.

I do like the ebay idea though--if only I could get Golden Palace interested....

Regards,

Tom
