If you’re looking for something to do this Saturday, try checking out an Open MAKE. You’ll have two to choose from. The Tech Museum of Innovation, down in San Jose, is hosting one about Flight. Over in Berkeley, Lawrence Hall of Science is all about Toys and Games.

I have been carving automatas [simple ones ] for about 1 1/2 years and became interested after studying and copying your anubis guys.To date I have made about 20 different automatas.

Did you experience this problem? I work on them only 3 months of theyear. [winter]
