Bloggarak Attack.

This is some sweet stuff I've got here.  The servo motor makes quite an annoying beeping noise, although it can't be heard over an XL-motor.

Anyone else ever own the epic Nike trainers from back in '03 with the Nuva masks on the toes? I miss those...

IF there's a more Iconic image in Bionicle, I haven't seen it.

Does anybody out there know a way to make a return-centre steering mechanism, that doesn't involve stalling the PF M-Motor?

So I made this enhanced version of my avatar, but I don't want to use it, because there is something wrong with it.  Can people critique it, so I can work out what is wrong with it? Because something is wrong with it, I just don't know what it is.

Working on a new epic, and taking a different style to normal.  Less crash/bang action, more sort of political, maybe?  Probably not the right word.  Action with intermediate spells of sophisticated dialogue regarding the reasons for the action.  Or something like that.

Just made the payment on my largest bricklink order to date.  It includes a metallic gold Kaukau and a copper mask of victory.  I've been meaning to get one of those ever since I got full proto.  Also include are a lot of epic technic pieces of varying levels of awesomeness.
 
In other news, I believe my premier membership is going to expire some time in the very near future.  I'd like to post pictures of the new parts, but I may not be able to if I lose control of this Blog.  Will work on renewing that at some point...

I spent what felt like an entire evening searching for a single Lego piece, and it didn't end in disappointment.

Measuring speed of sound by the doppler effect.  The first part involved a stopwatch, a sound recording, and my folding bike.

The second less conventional, and less legal on multiple levels part was using my mates Fiat 500 down the road at the front of the school.

The first run was hilarious, my mate drove down the road at 45mph (30 limit ), while I stick my head out of the window playing the harmonica (Well, one continuous note).  We later did it again, this time with the car horn instead of the harmonica.

The investigation was half successful, the bike got a value for the speed of sound of 386m/s, only 40-50ish out.  The car was not as successful, the sound recording didn't work that well, and somehow the pitch of the horn went up once the car had passed, when it should have gone down.  It sounded right on the recording, there was just too much interference to find a good value for the frequency.

Brilliant lesson though.

New I shoulda preordered AC3, I was like a day late for getting that DLC.  Don't see why you can't just have the outfit anyway, you wear it on the Aquila, why not outside of naval missions?
