Amy’s Weird Bike Emporium

chorl

Occasionally, cool non-motorized things come out of MIT. One of my peers and classmates, Amy (who was on here last for her smaller-more-elegant-and-more-functional-than-anything-i’ll-ever-build go-kart) is responsible for a disturbingly high amount of them.

In the last week (WEEK! WEEK! it takes me an entire week to start to think about possibly preparing to plan to begin to design something that might be waterjetted in the future) or so before she left MIT, she finished this thing. It’s like, a rolling TIG weld, and totally kicks ass.

Where the hell has Charles been?!

Between now and last time, I’ve been busy packing up and moving across campus to the graduate student apartments dormitories tenements burrows. So nothing much has happened yet. However, I did get a chance to fix Überclocker, and took apart Pop Quiz for a thorough check of what needs to be done before Dragon*Con 2011 and its associated Robot Battles.

I’ll also be trucking it all down (literally) not only for Dragon*Con, but also the Atlanta mini-Maker Faire the weekend afterwards. Segfault, land-bear-shark, RazEr, and the robots will be in attendance, with more depending on what else I finish – Ballcopter is one candidate.
