A competition along these lines is coming soon!

Ducks with Hammers

Inspired by robogary's robotics club story of a last minute robot build that captivated the hearts of all at a SciFi convention.  The finished project needs to move and whack at something.  Wireless or autonomous.  It can be as smart or as random as you want.

For Gary's story,  Danger Will Robinson, it's back off the shelf  Scroll down until you see the picture of a duck and a hammer.

    I suspect that it's ducks and humans (and their pets) that are at greatest risk from such a challenge.

    If you have moles in your workshop, then perhaps better to attend to that matter first. HammerDuckHammerDuckHammerDuck

    I want to advocate against mole violence in a project. Those poor moles are always getting whacked at. On the other hand, a smart mole would stay in it's hole.

    The link that the '1 day ago' alias references includes the comment ID in the URL.

    The vertical blue bar to the right of the comment highlights the comment linked to in the URL.

    (The page navigation sometimes breaks with pages with lots of comments but the vertical blue bar usually helps the comment stand out)
