Very informative video! I knew most of was automated, but seeing the package ride on the conveyer and seeing the massive facility was entertaining. I am not sure how many packages he had to send to get the great footage of the conveyer system, but that was lucky to get that kind of footage.
The second video, I guess you could say it was the outtakes, gave me a chuckle or two.
Thanks for sharing!

Using Arduino / General Electronics / Re: Recommendations on affordable lead free solder? Confused by all the formulas.

Agreed, that solder comes in too many variations. I have been soldering for a little over 20 years and I have stuck with the same formula, 60/40. The roll I have now is from Radio Shack and it doesn't say unleaded so I am assuming it's leaded. I usually don't go over .032" unless I need a mess of solder some where (repairing copper pipes).
So I don't think it makes much difference as long as the solder melts, once cooled it hardens, and conducts electricity.
But, while I'm typing, if anyone has a link to the uses of different formulas, post it up.

Unfortunately, no one here is going to right the code for you. You could pay someone to do it, but that would require you to post in the "Gigs and Collaborations" forum. It seems that you were receive some value help in your other thread. I can tell you that you are not going to learn programming in a day, week or even a month. But, what you are asking is fairly simple. A quick Google search turned up a nice tutorial on the subject. http://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/PotentiometerLook it over and try to modify it for your LEDs. If you have any problems, ask your question here.

This one is the scan. I took a scan of every board I designed. I just just uploaded the first one I seen.   If CrossRoads views this board, he might find it familiar.. Since it came from him. It's his Dual '328.  Yes, you can see the dust and lint in this one.

Just an update, I have a Power Shot A590 and I actually managed to sit down and read the manual. It has a Macro and did some test shots. I will have to find a place to host the pics.
I also tried the scanner. Had to set the DPI to 600 (highest for mine) to get some detail. Came out pretty sweet I think. Only problem, It takes good scans with a non-populated board, but with an IC, it's too far off the glass to get sharp images.
