Closed Mon, Sept 6th, New Stuff

September 3, 2010
HEY! YOU! WE'LL BE CLOSED FOR LABOUR DAY AND THERE AIN'T NOTHIN' YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT! BAHAHAHA!
*Ahem*
It's true. On the day called Labour, we will be doing anything but. Why is that? Nobody knows. But a day off is a day off, so we ain't complaining. Standard stuff applies - we'll answer calls/emails and resume order processing/shipping on Tuesday the 7th.
Do you miss us already? Well, we have a lil' somethin' to comfort you. You like making things that use blinky lights, right? We've been working on adding some cool new stuff from Evil Mad Science for doing just that. Check out the Bulbdial, which is a neat-o clock that uses LEDs to cast shadows for the second/minute/hour hands. There's also the Meggy Jr. RBG, which is a programmable handheld gaming platform. We'll try to get more Evil Mad Science up for you early next week, so stay tuned.
In the mean time, have a great Labour Daybour Weekend!

New GMPW Wheels!
No more rubber band tires for us! We've invested in getting our very own wheels made for us, with molded-on thermoplastic rubber wheels! These wheels are slightly larger in diameter than the old style, measuring 69.2mm (2.72") diameter and 7.65mm (0.30") wide. Ah, but how good are they? They're definitely better than the old style!

Symet Workshop
Here's something to take a boo at a workshop by Tom Mair and a Grade-5 class. From his message to the BEAM mailing list: Last year I helped Mrs. Corbett's Grade 5 class build robots and we had a blast (see a review here http://www.aasland.com/hcrd.html). Well, this year we are doing it again. We're building […]
