Thanks to Gareth Branwyn and his 2006 Holiday Gift Guide on Street Tech our new "Herbie the Mousebot" is featured on BoingBoing. For those who don't know BoingBoing is "A Directory of Wonderful Things."
We're teaming up with Brett Coulthard of Saskview.com to get their version of the Useless Machine put together as a parts bundle. We just finished it Friday night, and quick-posted tweets & a few photos of it, and are shipping today!
What comes in the bundle? Pretty much everything you need to successfully build a Useless Machine of your own:
We're only offering the box in black acrylic at the moment (experimented with clear - ehk), but if you ask really nicely, we probably could run one in red, blue, green, orange, white and (if you really want it), clear. Call in if you want any of those options.
Speaking of cool "Useless machines", Tony Youngblood's Christmas version was just featured on the Makezine Blog. He built his with our GM8 for super-fast response (we did our bundle with the slower GM4 - we like a more deliberate "ME: OFF" response).

Sorry about the delay in making these available. These tiny 25:1 pager-sized gear motors are difficult to get built. BUT, we finally have more GM15 gearmotors in stock!
An awesome catalog of wire for all of your project needs! We now have a good selection of stranded wire, solid wire, as well as multi conductor cable. If you have any wire requests that are not available online please reach out to support@solarbotics.com and we will see what we can do.
On Friday July 1st 2016 we are closed for Canada Day. We will return to our regular phone calls answering and shipping on Monday.
