2 years ago today I was chuffed to join the board of @OldHouseMuseum, & celebrated with like 5 bakewell tarts and then felt very sick.

I regret nothing!

A few of our board members are stepping down this year, so we’re looking for others to join our very lovely board 🍰

It was great to see the 7th prototype of a product design thesis around the LEGO insect manipulator.
The smoothness of the belt drive has me convinced this is a great and versatile solution …. Now to figure out how to work with belts when using LEGO #Entomology #prototype
