After working more than my fingers and toes care to count today (well, yesterday), I am finally home at quarter after one. Rhode Warrior 4 is complete and ready for shipping. And I am still wide awake.

On the bright side, an hour and a half of that was a pizza party more than 7 hours ago. I wonder who is still working at this late hour.

here.. we're all calling the robotics lab home!!

it's just before 2:30am... at about 7:30pm we were driving the robot around, and we managed to burn out a speed controller.. bend a shaft.. break a motor mount... hmm.. what else..

but better now than in Hartford right

None the less.. the blue grass is blaring and our night has only just begun.. kate & jon are standing next to me at the drill press trying to figure out how to drill holes in spacer plates... ken, deej and alex are finishing up on the mill on the new mounts.. rick, josh, and ethan are discussing controls.. and i'm being called to discuss the Hampster Power with Timmy..

all is well and calm...
