When I returned from MakerFaire Kansas City I was very pleased to find a Bullduino waiting on my doorstep! Hackaday has been accepted into the first round of the Redbull creation Contest. I’m doing the physical building while the other writers are consulting for this round. I’m also pulling people from around me here at SquidFoo (my local hackerspace) that can help.
Today, I got lucky enough to run into [Tony Sherwood] from MakerBot. I told him my idea and he eagerly volunteered to lend his brains and his brawn… as well as his Makerbot Replicator. He’s been very valuable so far using very good ideas on how we can get this thing operational as fast as possible.
I’m not going to share exactly what we’re building yet. I can tell you it will not be the most complex project, but it will be really fun, and a lot of likely dangerous. We’re starting today, which indicates we have very little time to build. lets hope we can make something interesting enough to go to round two!
