Subject: [alt-beam] My pvore wont grip!
Arg. I got my modified photovore working, but it wont move. The motors turn,
but wont grip. I've tried putting wire insulation on then. Didn't help. I've
put sticky tack. Won't turn. I've tried putting LEGO wheels on them! Still
would turn. Arg. Also, is it alright for the motors to have some play in
them. I mean like the shaft will slide in and out? I find that when the
shaft on one of my motors is pushed in it wont turn very well. How do you
fix this play? Thanks
-William
