Dale, that is very generous of you to give all that away.  Hope it goes to a good home.

I could use all that gear to compatibility test my open source HDL educational add-on board.

See it here:

I'm sure some of them will inspire some new wonderful combinations of different boards too!

I am a retired professor and I like to spend time with my little grandson, 8 yrs old, doing projects and learning about the Raspberry and the Arduino.  Your benevolence would be appreciated times 2!

Hi Dale Winhold:

I became disabled about 7-8 years ago.   I live alone now.   I had to quit all my sports and activities because of my disability.   So I decided to buy a Raspberry Pi for a hobby.   I am on a fixed income and cannot afford all the accessories,  so i try to save a little money every so often to buy something.   I like sharing it with a friend that seems interested in how it works.   I am currently trying to get a servo motor to work using Python.    No Luck Yet     

The accessories that you graciously are offering would help me tremendously.

Have you tried using servoblaster? You can get it here: https://github.com/richardghirst/PiBits/tree/master/ServoBlaster. 

to dwinhold :   I gave u the wrong area code in my phone number:    1-302-836-1441.... sorry.

I'd love to have those accessories to work with,,, it would excite me to figure out how to use them,,, and a buddy of mine that thinks computers came from outer space !!   

I Thank You in advance if you choose me,,,!!!!!!!!

I was interested in your accessories that you had offered !!  very much.

One thing I did not say was that I had contacted one of the R-pi educational people telling them that there is a local Vocational school nearby me,, and was thinking of creating a small class to teach the basics of computers,, using the R-pi as a base,,, since it is a cheap way to go.   The accessories may help to give me a kick start !!  if ya know what i MEAN 

Sincerely, Chuck Smith

Hello everyone,

Just with what I see so far I know the decision will be very hard. I have gone through all my collection and have come up with more. Enough to give away to 2 members. But the second will be Arduino.

In this one I will include:

1 - Arduino (UNO)

1 - LCD screen

3 - Sensors (Not decided which ones)

1 - Mini bread board

1 - Bread board power supply

1 - 8x8 color matrix

1 - Stepper motor and controller

1 - Servo

There may be other things added, but the above is definite. This note includes both giveaways.

I am doing this giveaway because of the help Element 14 members have given me and I feel privileged to be able to give back this way. I feel this is the least I can do to share with everyone.

I want to personally thank each and every member for their sharing of knowledge!!!

Dale Winhold

Extra note added:

In both packages I have added lasers and some real fun IC's.

I will also include randomly in one of the packages a:

HEWLETT-PACKARD 6870BTXXXAC TOMAHAWK MAIN BOARD ASSEMBLY P/N: 6870BT300AC

Picture is attached - I have 2 so I figure I'll share one - They run Windows CE
