Re: parent consent...

My personal opinion is that it won't matter how you ask. They aren't easily swayed. Parents are the constant of life. Try to ploy a trick, and you are guaranteed to get a no. However, there is always the 'big words' theory. If your parents aren't that mechanically inclined, you can usually convince them that it is for research of future robots. After all, you are 'learning from the best'. Good luck, but I will surprised if anything you say will make the slightest difference to them.
