Re: pic: One-day Minibot

OMG... I started building that exact same robot yesterday.

My design had the magnets above and below the rollers as I didn't know if your configuration would provide enought vertical allignment. I even have that same top switch from Lowes.

I see that you have a limit switch to turn the bot on when it contacts the pole. I was planning to turn it on as it left the robot, but your's is probably more universally interchangable.

Too Cool.

Phil.
