I think it was chapter 16?animals I was asked to make two new or remake older projects(from the old book) that were not to hard and I also made them so only 1.0NXT parts were needed as well. So since I only had a few weeks to contribute I made 1 new(monkey) and redid one of the older into studdless Rat. Monkey is by far better in its use of gears and movement.
WHOA! Really? Cool! Too bad you couldn't add more detail :-/. I remember building the monkey, but sadly, it didn't work well for me . I didn't really try to fix it (I had just received it). Maybe I'll try it again soon .
WOW! that is good. the base looks sturdy. could you post a video of it? oh and i saw that there were chains looping around the touch sensor in one of the pictures. are the chains still tight enough to work even around the touch sensor? oh and i program in nxc and am excited for the program to come.

Hey thanks! I love positive (and negative) feedback from people!

Yes. Those are for the drive, and they are PERFECT tightness
I have a VERY basic program and LDD file right now, but I will have to post them tomorrow.
