Subject: [alt-beam] Re: circuit background


That's nothing special. It's one of the Desktop patterns (like wallpapers if
you're a windows person) that come standard witht eh Macintosh's Mac OS. It's
simply called "Circuits". There are other paterns, tiled images, or standard
"wallpaper" type options, where you can tile, display or even stretch an image
to fit the screen. Like i said, nothing special. Don't go ant try to build it!
Hehe! (:

While I'm at it, I'd like to say I'll be adding schematics and PCB layouts to my
web page on Sunday, probably in the afternoon. I'll be including a 4 and 6 Nv
microcore, the 6 Nv branched bicore, and 2 types of H-Bridges (PCB layouts for
both types, and one type include dual and tri H-Bridges.

I'll try to get the menu and ti page up and let it be. I've been meaning to fix
that up to fit the rest of the page.

aoing to try to make a bicore schematic and PCB, but I may wait on that. I need
to order parts, and I'd prefer to build before I put anything up. Maybe I'll get
some turbot pics up soon, but it won't be tommorow (maybe not even next week,
but someday). I may also try to begin the mechanics for my 5 motor walker and
maybe Spyder. I'm not sure what type of walker I'll do though. I could make a
low wide robot like walkman and "veer" away from my traditional tall and thin
bots, ot if I should make another tall anthin bot like "Lobster". I'm going for
a large Nu/Nv net, mainly for expirimenting. I'd like to go beyond the basic microcore.

Has anyone on the list ever seen Tilden's Spyder? Are the motors attached
directly to the legs, or via bars or springs? I've looked at the images but they
are inconclusive. Also, do the legs have 2 vertical pivots, or is it one
vertical pivot and one rotational one, or are the legs got 2 vertical pivots
mechannicaly linked and rotational pivots. If I've just confused the heck out of
you, I appologize! (:
