It's amazing how much you learn from doing something yourself, not reading about it, not talking to someone else about it.
The title of this post is a tad rude but I get semi-obsessed with Soulemama sometimes and wonder how she manages to write books, homeschool, knit, sew, blog, and never slip up and buy something at Target or have a kid who was obsessed with superheroes or who chomped on a pthalate-laden toy or anything like that. She is practically perfect in every way, but I don't think she ever built a robot, however primitive, for her kids, so I got her there.

I always wanted to write a "Dirty Soule Mama blog or book" A grittier side of craft. Where the stitches aren't always perfect but the passion is spot on.
I love the bristle bot! What does it do? I know Otto is going to love your tinkerers school!
The motor just really vibrates a whole lot, which causes the brush to zig and zag about, eliciting squeals and laughter from the young folk. It's definitely not advanced robotry, but it works for me!
Bern, I couldn't agree more! that's always kinda been the motto behind my "Average Jane Crafter" blog - that it's just - ya know - average kinda stuff. Nothing perfect - NOTHING perfect. Perfection scares me! (though, deep inside, I can appreciate it ;)
Kami - I sent your tinkering email to several friends who all instantly frothed at the mouth and said, "HOOOOORAY!"
You rock. How on earth did I not connect the dots of you being THE Kami when we were in class. Such a dork, I am! ;)
