problems and problem solution

Yesterday was a long day. The Arduino Riders went to Stigs garage to do some "masculine" handcraft. Unfortunately the camera was out of battery so we don't have any nice pictures to show you... We tried soldering our phone cables with the buttons and connect them to the arduino. After a few attempts we managed to make it work. But our buttons and cables are soo tiny and fragile so we are kind of worried now, what if a really fat person like Robert comes in?

We are trying to solve that, and not by having a scale in our exhibition space but making the soles even more solid. Stig taught us how to use the "shrinking cable" for that. We are also tapeing a lot which is good.

This is the recipie for the soles:
- 1 swedish crown
- 1 phonecable (6 m)
- "Shrinking cable"
- Tape
- Switch buttons (4,3 mm)
- Silicon pads (party feet)

This is our schedule for the remining time:
