My 3D printing guru friend Mark will soon be selling some of my recent bots of his website. He just printed these parts for the trike, tiltwheel 1-servo bot, and he's starting the Tower of Hanoi bot.

    Cool stuff erco! When they are up on Mark's website, please let us know. At the very least I need an ErcoBot for my collection!

    If the Hanoi disks can be printed in colored sugar product, you can eat the Lifesavers after the puzzle has been solved. Then you would have a constant cash flow from the ordering of new disks.

    Thanks, IMO the last thing this world needs is another 2-motor differential drive bot.

    Err... S3 notwithstanding! :)

    The first Bot off the press had to pass the grueling figure 8 torture test...twice!

    It's a thing of beauty!, and not a caster in sight!

    Did I miss the Web site? or is it not ready for prime time? I want an erco branded Robot...The People want an erco brand, it's long over due.
