Re: Take a gander

Is that wood glue you used? It kind of looks like it.

Re: Take a gander

I see 19 CAT6 cables wired in what appears to be a parallel arrangement of 7 and 12 repsectively. Don't know why the hot glue but whatever you think you need. I am guessing non-functional decorations or cart decorations. Please don't tell me this is for CCFL lighting or something equally high voltage. CAT6 insulation is not rated for that.

Re: Take a gander

There are currently 31 sets of ethernet cable. There will be 45.5 sets of 8 in the finished product. No high voltages, no worries. Not part of my OI, very very old hot glue (to prevent bridging of any longer wires). This has something a little bit to do with robots, but not the FIRST robotics robots. There is another hint hidden deep within the picture (it's a visible clue, no meta data or anything unseen). I'm sure many of you have seen the end result in action.
