I forgot to post that my new robot shop is up and running. Its in the basement! I'm hopeful it will mean less clutter since it is not in the computer room any more. Also, as I live on the first floor I shouldn't feel bad running the scroll saw to cut my chassiss. Also I'm making an effort to keep the place neater so that I am not looking at a thirty minute clean up operation before I begin a new project. Lord knows that can stop me in my tracks! Of course, being out 2 1/2 weeks out of the first month I've been in the new place has not really helped. But still I have high hopes. Posted by Hello

So, after a long delay that new maze bot is starting to take shape. The old bot was just too much of a disappointment to continue working on. Nothing I did seemed to help it steer. This bot hopefully has better motors and a lighter weight construction. Also the geometry should be a touch better in the height to base ratio department. I still can't find my postal scale to measure it but it feels lighter. Posted by Hello
