@DJ,
I got spoiled by the weekly releases. Anything new coming soon? Not that I can do much from the middle of the desert. But hey its been quiet for awhile I thought I'd see what ya been working on.
If I remember correctly you had the shop at your house, DJ what will you do with all the extra room once you move out. Congrats on the new office.
Tym, get my life back
My house has become quite the place... Not great for living in! Literally every room is ezrobot. Storage, work areas, just stuff everywhere. Something like the early days of Apple
Passion. When I lived in Ohio when I was about 20, the house I owned was a three bedroom house. Two bedrooms and the basement were converted to a shop, make up room and storage. My poor ex first wife. Rubber monsters and aliens everywhere. Living in LA it's now confined to the garage and my office. Second wife very happy.
But seriously it's all about the drive and passion. You have those and you can accomplish anything. I know, I've done it. And you are well on your way DJ
Thanks! Your house sounded like an amusement park - maybe your ex would have been happier if you charged admission and made extra cash on the side for the troubles! haha I'm feeling that way about my place with the robots.
Lol, that probably would have saved the marriage. At least a haunted house during the month of October!
@fxrtst- I'm in Ohio! :-) The woman and I are in the process of purchasing a house that has what appears to be an old mechanics garage. Easily 2 cars deep, concrete floors, insulated and welding vents on the roof. I'm so excited. I'm just starting to get into robotics and I'm lucky enough to have a shop space. It's super awesome that you're from Ohio. What award is that you're holding? It looks super familiar but I'll be honest I never really kept track of what golden trophy is which. I know what the Oscar and Lord Stanley's Cup looks like but that's about it.
Looking forward to all of the updates. I just ordered my first ez-robot complete kit today. I can't wait to get started.
Ah yeah what part of Ohio? I've lived in Los Angeles for the past 20 years, but still go home once a year to see my friends and Mom of course. But thanks for rubbing it in on how much space you have. I just lost an offer for a home last week, i managed to find a house and shop on 8.6 acres in Los Angeles, but got out bid. The shop was 1400 sq ft! The award I'm holding is called an Emmy.
That's it, Emmy. That's one of the bg boys! Nice. What for if I might ask? I lived in LA for a year between 98-99 I loved the weather but as life would have it i'm back in northwest Ohio. Bummer you didn't get that place. We've been extremely fortunate in the whole process. I've had lots of friends buying homes in the past few years and they all have nightmare stories. I've got not a 1 so far. Still about another 2 weeks till closing so anything can happen but so far so good. I don't want to hijack the thread so I'll just say that it's great to chat with another Ohio native. I'm sure we'll be seeing each other on the forums. ;-)
