 Remember, however, that such software limitations in no way approximate the functionality of a multiple-speed, mechanical transmission. They're simply a convenient way of limiting your students' lead feet. - Madison [more] |

holiday gifts
I have a few nephew's who are just getting into robotics
 They are just getting started with Lego Robotics. I am looking to help in their new love by getting them so robotics themed gifts for the holidays. Nothing to expensive (under $50). Does anyone have any suggestions.

There's an ad in a relatively recent PopMech for Radio Shack. Their new thing is "The Great Create," trying to get people into DIY projects (using parts from their stores, of course). Anyway, this ad's project is, essentially, a Hexbug. I would post a link, but I can never seem to find the projects i see in PopMech on the Great Create website, and I don't have a QR reader (they have a QR code for each project), let alone a smartphone, I can't find the detailed instructions anywhere.

Re: holiday gifts
Might want to check out today's Woot and Kids Woot for Hexbug products at discounted prices.
Not sure if that's too simple for a 10-year old or not. My memory is fading. I do remember that I was running a lathe at about 14. Last edited by sanddrag : 01-12-2011 at 01:51.
