Mobile Post

I'm posting while on my way home from work. Don't panic, I'm riding the Indy Commuter Express bus, which offeres wireless connections while in route. It's the first time I've done it this year, and it's pretty cool.
My plans to participate in the Louisville LVL1 sumobot competition were swept aside by the flooding of my basement just prior to the Ft. Wayne Maker Faire. My sumobot is still a bare pc board and a cardboard model. I am working to complete it, having ordered parts for IR sensors and styrene for the structure. I'll be putting together a small vacuum molder and trying my hand at that soon. I will post pictures on flickr.
I also just ordered a bunch of nema 17 stepper motors. I plan on rebuilding my drawbot into something cooler and able.
Well, almost home now, so I'll sign off. More later.
