Under Promise, Over Deliver... =) Key phrase of the day! Heh... Our project is way way ahead of dateline. 3 months ahead. Yays! \(^o^)/ We can probably get that machine moving tomorrow, thanks to my partner goal oriented and self-disciplined nature. He is really motivated. =D And yep, I said it. Received constructive feedback and a warning though. But I think we sorted out our differences overall =). Throughout the entire process, which wasn't very long, I learnt alot. From what to look out for when buying wires, to soldering wires, from the different connectors to the different pins, from "saving money" by "hacking" an old computer power source to actually buying one and learning how to wire a 3 pin plug, the usage of different tools when it comes to connecting different things. Lessons I would have never bothered to find out. =D Did you know that there is such thing as a glue gun? =D Other than the technical terms, there were also the leadership quality and maturity I learnt from my partner. Lots of lessons well learnt =) though some of the things he said made me think twice. Going home late was a little creepy though, but I met Xing Quan and Bing Ren on the way back. =D Some pictures from my project...XD The clueless me at the start of the project with no idea where to start... The old PC supply I tried to hack. It stills works and it provides 12V, 5V, 3.3V and 0V =D
The little robot that is part of the parts of the project =) My first soldering experience =DD Looking good there eh, wires? ^^ And that's all folks... =D Time to do my CV to prepare for the next chapter of the holidays! =D
