Nice to know that if you're not being deliberately stupid with them they will survive.

At least I might be able to use them to build a speedo with a heatsink.

My feather is finally in the works.I am buying the 12mm HDPE for the end of my exams as a present to myself. All the parts are assembled and I've CADed it...

The claw is an aspect I will develop when I have the cash and time so for the moment it's a pushbot (that's why it's not attached to anything).

Before you criticize another person, first walk a mile in their shoes. Then, when you critisize them, you'll be a mile away and have their shoes.

My HDPE arrived and is all in order. The stuff is a dream to work with: cutting is easy and drilling is incredibly straight forward (although only up to an 8mm drill bit, my drill can't handle a 10mm without stalling). The batteries are all sorted with deans ultra connectors although the things are incredibly hard to solder. No snags so far.
