Wm. Dandreta Co. closed about six months ago. But I do know that A&J and Old Fashioned Robotics are still around. A bit of an adendum, or a deletion as the case may be.

Dandreta Co. Location: 28 Wolcott St, Providence, RI 02908 Phone: 401-861-2800 Note: Call first. Otherwise be prepared to spend an hour there while they locate the parts you need. 3) Old Fashioned Robotics Location: 14 Cedar St, Providence, RI 02903 Phone: 401-276-4216 Online: http://oldfashionroboticstore.com/ Enjoyed meeting a bunch of folks tonight and re-meeting folks I've known for quite a while. Meanwhile I realized I don't have to de-solder the header pins. I can just heat them up and push them through. That'll work.

This is definitely something that an inexperienced solderer can build. I think you'll have a blast! Thanks, Ralph! This is definitely something that an inexperienced solderer can build.

I've never soldered before -- but I've always wanted to try. It's not a problem if this is more for experienced people, in which case I will just watch and learn as much as I can. Sounds like it will be great fun either way... Thanks so much for setting this up! Best regards, Ralph Gaboury Hello:
