Hi Dave,
I'm glad your son found inspiration in my work. I have plans for a tutorial
on the Bubblebot, but haven't had the time to finish it. Hopefully, I can
have it up soon. If you run into problems, or have questions when he starts
building, don't hesitate to ask for help. Inspiring an eager young mind is
the ultimate reward. And BEAM is the first discipline that I've been involved
in that does that so well. You should be commended as well. Taking the time
to help in your son's interests is quite noble and inspiring on it's own. I
wish more father's could do that.

See ya,
Jim

Depends on a few things. The J is the common choice. But, if you want more
kick, go for the N. If you want a faster kick go for a E or G. But, you
sacrifice torque. Try different combinations of triggers, caps, and solar
cell sizes. It's the only way to see the difference.

See ya,
Jim

13003 Tue, 4 Apr 2000 03:54:33 -0700 (PDT) Re: Ambler and so on beam@sgiblab.sgi.com Evan Dudzik sounds like a really kool idea, but make sure you're
ready to do the precise building it takes to build a
photopopper, and then fit it into the ball! it can be
a real challenge... but good luck!

Nine? I'm really impressed! Most discover this hobby in their early teens.
The fact that you encourage him instead of telling him he's too young to
solder is even more impressive. My hat is off to you sir!
