Funny enough, DJ and I both won prizes in an Instructables Robot contest a few years ago:)

I think that there was enough prizes that everyone who entered got something, it was pretty sweet, I think I received a book and an Instructables T-Shirt.

Edit - Found the link in the archives

@irobot58 Well the little guy does still exist but I stole his servos for the EZ-mini project I had where I placed an EZ-mini robot on a white board with a whiteboard marker attached to it so it could draw while driving sideways:)

Well, I was just accepted into the contest. I also got a message that my B9 Robot was chosen to be a Feature Project in the Technology section. They say that's good thing. I'm honored. :)

Thanks Troy , but really for me its more of a dead line thing then any recognition or prize:) to enter. Hopefully you have been getting some good productive hours in with your project!
#33

FRED and Instructables

I am sure I will "enjoy" many edits to the entry....:) I think I am the 35 entry . At the moment its being "considered" for publishing/entering. It is not fully complete by any means but there's still 5 weeks left to get in a video!
#35  
No problem.:D
I really want to see one of our community members win this! Good luck all!
#36  
I was going to rush to get mine finished in time to enter but since i won't have an EZ-B in time i guess I'll have to wait till next year if they make it annual. someone from this community should absolutely win.. our bots are the best hands down.

I know instruct ables like simple stuff so maybe I could do squeegee.

I saw it and voted! Nice, I love the eyes and the Jewels Vern time machine twist.
#40  
Thanks Dave! The Time machine is not quite done yet, I am still making the "book" which will have a compartment for a slide out cd player to hold a mirror or anything else.

Very old school with the wood and metal - awesome steampunk look! Now there are 3 of us in this, my EZ-Face they finally allowed in after 3 tries! :D
