Check this out on Hack-A-Week - http://hackaweek.com/hacks/?p=233

This is his first Propeller based robot and uses Roomba parts. Looks like we have a convert!

Looks like Roy Eltham gave him some tips too.

    Hey Whit,
    doggiedoc sent him that board too. So it was a concerted effort! :)

    Also, MakerDino streams his work a lot on ustream, so you can watch him build and test the Hack-A-Week stuff. Follow him on Twitter, he posts on there when he is live.

    God bless Dino and everyone who has time to follow his Tweets and watch his ustream feed.

    With twins & wife & work & doing my own thing, there is no Twitter. There is no ustream.

    There is only plywood and relays.

    And yet you still have time to carry away some beutiful woman on some forbidden planet...

    Yo, dat's wat I do, Dawg... Normally it's carrying away two beautiful ladies. I'm 50 years old, lugging 60 pounds of twins. Both numbers just keep going up, no end in sight... :)

    Happy Fourth, Pal!

    I should remind him it's a loaner! He seems to really like it. What's that old saying? "Possession is nine tenths of the law." :D

    It's really great to see how much can be accomplished when people work together.

    Judging by Dino's post - I think you are in trouble...
