Hi All,

I am a Minnesota local and here's the link to my first wooden automata project....Automata iPhone Dock. It cranks from portrait to landscape mode. Follow the link to see a video and complete details of the build process. Hope to get your feedback.

It was also featured on Gizmodo. Here's the link. http://gizmodo.com/5373109/wooden-autom ... horizontal

Fun little project, There is something deeply satisfying about a wooden hand crank for a modern piece of communication. Cheers

Wow...I saw that on a couple of blogs. Very cool, especially for a first-time project of that sort.

Have you considered attending one of our meetings? We'd love to have you as a member. We'll be getting together tomorrow night (Wednesday), 7-ish, at Common Roots Cafe, in Minneapolis, 26th and Lyndale. This is one of our informal meetings- just getting together to share ideas and show off a bit.
