first i would like to thank everyone for helping me and my son out..
but i would like to specifically thank the following, because without these guys we would still be stuck on specific things.
CrossRoads, Grumpy_Mike and Neight (who is just as new to this whole thing as we are)..
CrossRoads, thank you for helping me the most with my huge project - without you, i don't think i will ever get it accomplished and for that i am very grateful! you're not that far away from me - if we ever meet up - drinks are on me!
wow, thanks for the mention!
and you are both more than welcome
I am glad my very frustrating weekend project was able to help someone get results
I had to bail on my original 7seg idea, and opted for an LCD display instead (made the headache go away)
Now I have all kinds of ideas running though my head, this LCD screen has really opened up some options!
I can't wait until my daughters are old enough to start teaching this stuff too. They could easily make their own toys, and have fun in the process!
Great parent-child project, and I hope you guys are having fun!
