Pulley are hard work with big tools, but we wont see them. That said, I started to really like them.

Finally not raining, test day

My setup. Box now nearly waterproofed, my Max/MSP patch half done, my silent MIDI to stepper motor interface finished and nicely running, amps running nicely, new sound interface is fine, everything is screwed in place, just need the right power supply for the amps instead of my maker space one.
