I wanted to built myself a "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z86V_ICUCD4|most useless machine]]" for a while and after experimenting with an old cd-player and a switch I figured out the circuit and made a proof of concept version.

So yesterday I bought a [[http://www.okaphone.com/artikel.asp?id=468914|cheap servo]] at my beloved [[http://www.okaphone.nl/|Okaphone]] and built it in a couple of hours. Nice project with a combination of building, soldering and figuring stuff out. First time I used hot-melt glue in a project and it ain't pretty but it works wonders!

Little video of the result [[http://vimeo.com/26108237|is on Vimeo]].
