Black Friday Shopping Lukas' style

Lukas is in the middle of another robot project, one that he has received partial funding for via his most recent educational grant. The first two phases of the project have now been complete and he is ready for a motor, wheels, and other parts - first phase that requires actual funding. He has spent much time scouring adds, and the internet for the best deals for parts and this morning the three Severinghaus guys headed out shopping in support of Local Saturday. The hunt was successful, and after some further investigation and research on the internet, they returned to the store and are now home with a large contraption. Part of the requirements were being able to be transported in our car, without need for a trailer, and since this came home in the Honda, the requirement has been met. The funding manager is content, the motor came in under budget. So far, so good, stay tuned for more updates!
