Check. This. Out. Don from Ontario sent this video our way, of a marble catapult machine he made that uses the GM18 30:1 Mini Metal Gearmotor.

Bread(boarding) is fun!

Mmm, bread. Sandwiches, french toast, garlic bread... Around here, many of us are partial towards sourdough. But being an electronics company, we also have a soft spot for breadboards, of the prototyping/circuit variety. Don't get us wrong - normal breadboards are great too (the inability to cut our bread would surely lead to the collapse of society as we know it). The fact of 
the matter is we like circuit-flavoured breadboards so much that we've just added a handful of them in various shapes and sizes:
- 21380 - 17 x 10 Mini Breadboard
- 21020 - Single Panel Breadboard
- 21000 - 2-Panel Breadboard
- 21005 - 3-Panel Breadboard
- 21010 - Economy Wiring Kit
So maybe the last item isn't a breadboard at all, but a collection of various wires will make prototyping your circuit a lot easier. Check out our Advanced section for power supplies, a voltage regulator kit, and other nifty parts.
