Well after many months of waiting and being sick, SUNSHINE is back in town!
She stands four and a half feet, with her arms up, six and a half feet.
I would like to thank all of the people who have been patient with me. I will probably ask a lot of software questions because my memory is not what it used to be.
I would like to thank Rich, Rich R, Troy and all the others who made me decide not to quit.
Here is version 1 , Sunshine:

Looks great
Thanks!
She's a beauty! You say version 1. Do you plan to rebuild?
I am SO GLAD Sunshine is back! Looking very good, and ... I love big bots, I cannot lie.... You have inspired me. With so much personal stuff going on and family tragedies I sold off my bots and a lot of my stuff and had given up. But now I am re-energized. I will also be posting my new project soon. I love your bot!
Mel, I am happy to see you active with robotics again. Sunshine is shaping up and looking good. I can tell you have put much work onto Sunshine. Steve S
Thank You all!
What I meant by Version1 is that you NEVER actually get through with a robot because you are always adding on extra features as they become available.
@MovieMaker- I think it was Da Vinci who said, "No work of art is ever completed, only abandoned." Getting into robotics really puts that into perspective.
Sunshine is awesome. It and Dave's B9 really got my attention when I first came the this site a little over a year ago. I don't have the fortitude right now to try a big build but I do love seeing them. They truly show off what the EZB can do.
I'm glad you kept Sunshine alive. One small question, are those blue brackets I'm seeing 3d printed?
Thanks again for giving us Sunshine, Mel. It's definitely a source of inspiration to others.
@Antron yes it was Da Vinci who said "Art is never finished, only abandoned"
Mel, Sunshine is looking good.
