(...) Thanks, Matt. The real tricky part about it is in connecting the 2x3 slope on it's side. Because of the way it must be done, I originally ended up with a slot/gap between the top of the 2x3 slope and the brick above it. The slot/gap was about (...)

I know this is a long way off (think 2050) but, on Thursday, Intel revealed prototypes of a new wireless power supply. If this ever comes to market, think of the possibilities!

(...) Hi Ludo, Sorry to not write back sooner, but I've been away. I greated the stickers myself. I use art software and a deskjet printer with crystal clear mailing labels.
