A Build!

This is the first time something like this happens to me, and I have to admit I'm very pleasantly surprised. You see, I described this project here, but am still working for the parts (in fact, still didn't send the PCB design to fabrication), and suddenly I get a message telling me that @al1 mentioned me and my project in his log update. I head over there, and what do I see? He build my project before I got a chance to even try it. That's what I call rapid prototyping.

In all honesty, @al1 didn't actually replicate my (as yet non-existing) project -- he actually improved on the design, and plans to use his own code. He also used a strip-board instead of a custom PCB and those long pin headers, instead of awkward hacks I'm planning to use.

I think I will steal some ideas from it.
