I need someone to mentor me while i build a robotic hand?

This is my post on the other board http://arduino.cc/forum/index.php/topic,128414.0.html. If someone has any expertise on this field of arduino, could you please help me?

Having someone from the other side of the world as a mentor is probably less useful than having something on the other side of the country/town/street. So, where in the world are you?

Boston Mass. But even chatting and working out solutions through skype or AIM helps.

I'm in MA, sometimes Boston. Call or Skype me below.
