I'm probably on some government watchlist now. :(

That's a lot of robotics. Wife is mad not because I bought 'em, but because I took the picture while she was washing the sheets to that bed. :thumbsup

post pics of your wife

i need two barbeques by next sunday :winkwink: :1orglaugh no fbi im kidding

Topless please.

What are you building? Apart from the Arduino logo I can't make out what it all is on my phone.

Pics of my ex-wife would be better. My wife is cute, but no tittage. My ex-wife has DD's.


Staying clear of this one. :1orglaugh


I build lots of projects. This is just a shit-ton of Arduino and assorted gear laid out on the bed. There's a bunch of Arduino units, LCD screens, GPS units, XBee (wireless) units, capacitors, resistors, LEDs, switches ... etc.

If you mean what's actually built on the left side, it was just a doodle where I hooked a potentiometer up to a servo, and actuated the servo from the setting on the pot. Here's a short video showing how it worked:

i need a certain degree of concentration and commitment to do what you do and they are both in short supply these days.

Like anything worth doing, it takes practice and dedication. :thumbsup

Whats this all for?

I'm above you on the list so you don't have to worry until after my 'Tunnel Car Crash' or 'Suicide', by which point they're working towards you. As long as I'm still posting on GFY you're still safe :2 cents:

Yeah, I'm curious too. Have been wanting to looking into hobby robotics lately, no real idea where to start tho...

Probably a good idea to avoid the finish line in any marathon in your city.

j/k

(contributing to the watchlist) :1orglaugh

They have you filed away under "Harmless Loon", no one's going to bother you. You actually serve the government's interests indirectly by helping make conspiracy folks look like morons. :upsidedow

Sad thing is you truly believe this.

I wish I had some free time to mess with Arduino

We are ALL on a governmental watch list... Every one of us, all the time. ;)

Are you gonna finally motorize all those real dolls you've been collecting?

its been long since i did something with my rpi.,

That slow spinning thing looks like what Bruce Willis used in The Jackal to mount that big ass sniper on, only smaller.Awesome things nontheless.Still a better hobby than fishing.Cheers!

Build yourself a new wife - Problem solved...

Just dont buy a pressure cooker, you should be o.k.

Check out some Arduino tutorials online. It's a very easy programming language, and if you're not able to work with electronics at all, the wiring and components will make intuitive sense.


Yeah, no shit, right?


It's definitely a time-suck for larger projects. "I'll just troubleshoot this one last thing" becomes "oh fuck, it's 5am" in a hurry.


Sadly, this is very true. :Oh crap


Not a horrible idea! :thumbsup


Raspberry Pi is a cool machine, I just have been doing Arduino so long, it's hard to really get too excited about it. A friend of mine just got a contract to write an rpi book, so we'll see if he comes up with anything good.


You are the first person to ever figure out what that was for, wow. This is what I ended up building from that setup:

Sold pretty well on Craigslist, which is good, considering the haul I just posted was close to $2k.


Also not a bad idea. :thumbsup


Yikes. Very true. :Oh crap
