Well, it's the end of the year apparently. 2011 has kinda withered up and died like some kinda... Food thing that tends to dry up if you leave it out for too long. Like jerky. Or raisins. Mm, especially raisins when they're in oatmeal cookies (shh, don't tell the boss. Anything but a strict chocolate + oatmeal combination around these parts is pure blashpemy). Anyways, just so y'all know, we'll be closed on December 30th and January 2nd to do some year-end shinanigans. Business resumes as usual on the 3rd.
But that's all kinda boring. So let's show you something kinda neat. Youtube user SSublett1 took a Let's Make Robots Start Here bundle and turned it into something really freaking awesome. He made a CNC wood burner that HARNESSES THE POWER OF THE SUN to, uh, burn wood. It's like a home-made laser engraver, but the power source is a giant flaming ball of gas in space. Check out the video:
And just because we can, here's a SECOND project video! Of a jumping/gliding robot! It doesn't use any of our parts or anything, but it's just so darn cool, we have to show it off.
If you're based in Calgary and feel like buyin' cool robot parts and working with a fistfull of geeks, drop us a line or give us a call (403 232 6268).
...aaaand that's it for the rest of us for the rest of the year. We hope that everyone's 2012 is much better than their 2011. Happy holidays, seasons greetings, happy new year, autonomous robots and spicy tacos, from the team here at Solarbotics.

Being April in Calgary, it should come as no surprise to any of you that yesterday we had a lovely blizzard which melted and froze, coating everything in a delicious layer of ice. This, of course, is somehow connected to the fact that Solarbotics El Presidante, Dave, is currently in Las Vegas where it is […]
Ladies and gentlemen, it is with deep regret that I present you with our last news post of August. Next week will become September, which causes uncontrollable weeping for students, parents of students, and anyone who was ever a student. Lots of pain all around. Heck, some of the Calgary trees are already starting to […]
Autumn! Time to gather your nuts, seeds and berries and hunker down for the winter, and warm yourself by the warmth given off by your …new 3D printer. Either as a tool to build your holiday decorations & cookie cutters, or as a gift to your favorite geek or geeklet, NOW is the time to […]
