Yoicks! Lotsa new stuff!

Well, the pile of stuff we've just got in finally fell on me, forcing me to deal with it. Got some neat new stuff!:

  • GMTT Traction tires for our GMPW and SW wheels. Ideal for mini-sumo robots!
  • GMWW02 Wheel Watcher Encoder kits for the GM2/3/8/9 series gear motors, and GMWWS
    spacers (needed for GM2 & GM3)
  • PRet
    Plastic Retainers, which are quite useful for making micro wheel hubs
    on RM1a style gear motors (Herbies - wheeee!)

  • TBlk2
    Two-position Terminal Blocks, when coupled with our Tact1
    springs make great tactile sensors like the ones on our ScoutWalker
    3

That's it for now, but we're still working through the summer towards some
cool new stuff for the fall. Stay tuned...(enjoy your summer in the meanwhile -
we are!).

New Canadian Prices

I've got a note on my desk that says "Annouce that some Canadian Prices have changed". Uh...ok. I do what I'm told. Apparently, this has something to do with our Canadian dollar climbing like a rabid beaver.
