    Oh that was horrible!

    The video quality I mean, somebody get him a GoPro!

    I could have sworn that he had made a large one before?? Maybe this is the same one and this is it's first fully functional test...

    At any rate it is really cool to see something so large, so mechanical, so metal, and so handmade in action.

    So has anyone here backed him? I was going to but it looks like he is going to fall WAY short of his goal. Too bad, as I think I need one of these too!!!

    We've backed for three.

    No harm in backing, you don't pay anything if the goal isn't reached.

    I backed him for 1, but wanted to do for 2. Couldn't figure out how to do for 2.

    Too bad the Hack-a-day guys didn't give that a boost.
