You probably saw this already but its right up your ally with the space robots and such, I recall you asking me about it a long time ago but I unfortunately didn't have any good answers.

hey ERG! Thanks for following my "trenches"! Am honored!

Thanks again Erin! It's nice to get notifications from you, I hope you're doing fine! How are you progressing with your self-deployable robots? 

  Are you sure? yes | no

[skaarj] wrote 06/20/2016 at 21:05 • point

Thank you for following my project. I am sorry for the long delay. A lot of activity for the project. And somehow I think it fits those specifications about clean environment you sent me a log time ago via hack chat.

  Are you sure? yes | no

Radu Motisan wrote 11/19/2015 at 16:03 • point

Thanks Erin! I didn't have the chance to tell you about it, but building robots is one hobby we share:

Thanks for the skull and the follow, hope my feedback was helpful :)
