While this is cool, I still would see no purpose to using it. You see, many of these ideas people get are very good, yet not to the full extent they should be at. Such as this drill launch. Just go out and buy a powerful motor, and customize Knex to work with that motor...much more realistic and better looking. Before I stopped Goliath (due to needing more pieces and not wanting to put money into it...and my pig), I wanted to use a powerful motor for the lift, cuz lets face it, the Knex motors suck. Now that I look back at my automated rubberband launch, I could have replaced the Knex parts that were breaking with metal rods, or built a simple rig to interact with the Knex to do a much better job. Nothing against anyone though, just thought I'd add some ideas to the mix.

can you send it again? I either deleted because it was in my spam folder or you never sent it to me.

Guys, I hate to say this, but when I was trying to "clean" up my computer today, that whole tutorial was erased. I'll make a new tutorial maybe in a few days. I apologize for mess up. Thanks for the interest though.

P.S. I still have the pictures, is someone willing to just look at a bunch of pictures and figure out how to put it together? I can answer any questions to that too. Im really lazy haha

Don't mock my e-mail address; I've had it for years.

ALSO!!, if it's not too much trouble, could you send in Wordpad format. I don't have MS Office.
