My give away for the deserving member!!

dwinhold
dwinhold over 12 years ago

Hi Everyone,

 

I have been chosen to road test the PiRack and found myself buying lots of expansion boards... etc. and now have to many for what I need. I would like to GIVE the few extras to a deserving member. The items include:

 

1 - PiRack

1 - Bread Board power supply

1 - 8x8 color matrix

1 - Raspberry Pi Expansion Evaluation Development Board Various Interface

1 - 2" LED screen

1 - WIFI Dongle (For a RPI)

1 - Distance sensor

1 - Mini bread board

1 - Rx and Tx transmitter

1 - Stepper motor and controller

1 - Smoke sensor

 

Sorry, the Raspberry Pi isn't included.

 

Please post why you should be chosen to receive this kit in a couple of sentences and I will pick (not at random) who will receive the parts. Make the reason funny, entertaining, serious but be original. I will be having my family help decide.

 

Since the parts are extra and it is a gift to who wins, this is how it is shipped (as a gift). Shipping is paid so no cost to the winner.

 

Any questions? Please ask!!

 

Decision date is Oct 20th, 2013 - No set time

    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   image  

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

    Sincerely,  Chuck Smith
