Motorised skateboard, & Jaycar


Just been down to Jaycar (electronics outfit opp. the Oval
& next to BP Everedi) - they've got heaps of stuff there..

AND i saw another (the same one - are there two?) motorised
skateboard - up close this time.
Powered by a little weed-whacker motor, it has two foot-
anchors on it & there is a joystick-thing but it has two cycle
hand-brakes - maybe that's how it's steered.
Then a bloke came out of Jaycar wearing a helmet & a backpack,
climbed onto this thing & went scooting up the road!!

YAY!!

  1. Back to JayCar this afternoon - spent a little pile of money on bits & pieces (it adds up fairly quickly) because i want to make a little shield with the little breadboard on it - just more convenient than the current straggly-wire arrangement..
