See you next year!

I just want to thank everyone who helped make the Open House happen. I want to thank everyone who joined us and hope you come again.

For everyone else, here is a bunch of pictures of what you missed.

We shot lasers, we crashed the go cart, we made beer (not in that order however). I think everyone had a good time!

Meet HEX

Mark who is a member of Baltimore Hackerspace has been working on this full sized biped robot made of mostly spare parts for over 2 years. These are the first movements after adding the Axon II controller and getting all the servos wired up. The goal is to start teaching it to walk over the next couple months.
