"Umm yeah', when he says "there goes the timer", he means there goes the VCR timer......the first one was a test, just like he said.....extremely complicated, isn't it? Maybe you should stick to your lego projects, i bet there's a lot less thinking involved!

LOL I love that, Sensor requires a need for a complicated pulley system. Anyone else think to themselves, 'Why spend 3 hours making a pulley system when you could take ten minutes to just unsolder the sensor from the rest the circuit board?' This is just stupidly complex for show. I'm pretty sure people would be more impressed if the VCR cat feeder used minimal amounts of extra hardware.
