HoverHaul has sought cover for the weekend, and meanwhile:

• Pipeline is still moving well.  There are still things to work on while other things are being shipped here. I will need more nickle strips, but I don't mind splitting the battery pack work up  Tools have been showing up as they are needed.  There are tasks that will be put aside this weekend due to weather, which gives me the time to build the battery pack, because...
• The spot welder came today. Wondering how I'm going to connect it to a suitable battery. My 16AH worth of solar-charged LiFePO4s isn't gonna cut it, so I'll be using a car battery. Not exactly something I can put on my workbench while I weld, so I'll have to use jumper cables of some sort. 
• Next in tool pipeline are a replacement and spare ST-Link V2's to replace the one I toasted. 
• I've been putting modules on boards, the Pi will be next. Still need wooden furring strips to screw into between the metal storage box and the mounting boards.
• Verified alsa sees external speaker and camera's mic for recording
• While I was checking another USB camera with audio, I noticed STT Output doesn't work, afaict. Still looking at port 8080 (camera server output), cuz whatever it is, hoverbot code doesn't like it .
