Subject: Re: Conductive Epoxy?
I just read the original message so if this was already covered, skip it! My
big input on this is BE CAREFUL. I know that sometimes my leads can get
dangerously close to a short. If you have you leads or any exposed bus wire
that is really close to another lead, you should use that epoxy. If you take
the suspended bicore, and put your finger of all the leads, that will goof up
to circuit enought to screw up the gate, and fingers have a lot more
resistance, at least non-sweaty ones! So just be careful when doin drastic
things like that!

12967 Mon, 3 Apr 2000 19:33:04 EDT Re: PM-1 beam@sgiblab.sgi.com BUDSCOTT@aol.com Thanks Thomas, i think that will help. I really don't want to use a gold cap,
because i have finicky motors that don't like 3vdc from a bicore (even
though they run straight on 3vdc!). Now what i think i may do is take either
1 or 2 10000uF caps and make the PM-1. The 10000uF's that i have are rated at
6.3 vdc, so i can use the 1381 N(or M, i cant read it!). Thanks for the help!

Kyle just spent the better part of an hour going over many of the robots
on your web page. Jumping up and down every time a new picture loaded
saying, "I want to build one of those, I want to build one of those." He
is very impressed with Ambler, but his all time favorite is Bubble
Bot--he is begging to go to the mall to get some vending machine bubbles
so he can create one or two. I think he has plans to let them lose in
the front room to drive the cat nuts. He is off happily planing to copy
one or more of your design ideas over the coming weeks.
He wants me to thank you for all the inspiration.
Regards,
Dave
