Hey all,

My new propeller (and 3.3, 6, 12V) powered robot has gotten picked up on a couple of websites. :) The project thread is here:

I appologise if you've already seen this, but it really exciting when stuff gets picked up by others and they think it's cool too. Thanks Gadget Gangester and Dangerous Prototypes!

    Great robot!

    but...
    Isn't it a bit oldfashioned to grow crops in dirt?
    Personally, I prefer my WindowFarm for growing veggies.
    (Yeah, I grow veggies in old sodabottles that are filled with clay pellets and have nutrients pumped around with an aquarium aerator pump... One day I'll automate it a bit with one of my Propeller Prototype boards, too...)

    Way to go Dave :smile: Congratulations!!!

    I'm jealous - my robots are in a constant state of "change" - which really means "non-functionality"...
