Instructables MSE Bundle

Jerome Demers is our intern, and he just had to build a miniball project for Instructables. And then he couldn't help but make another Instructables, this time for a Solar Powered Battle Symet. Both these projects use the same parts, so we've put together this parts bundle to set you on your way.
