After about 3 years and a move from He() I'm finally getting my bot back up and running.

Somehow the movers cracked a connector which I failed to notice and fried my PRT control board. Thankfully SB's fantastic support group was able to one out to me and delivered on Dec 23rd. I still need to order a connector but at least I can start squaring it up.

It's been a while since I followed the forum. Any significant new developments that might apply to a PR tool with a PRT controller?

In particular, any new designs for the dust skirt or vacuum attachment?

David,
Are you back in NJ again? Glad to see you are still bottin'.


The 4G PRT upgrade was probably one of the most significant upgrades to the PRT control box, in addition to the Windows software enhancements over the DOS version.

Joe and Brady,

I'm in Ewing NJ. It may be a while until I get to OK.

Brady,

When my controller died, I thought about upgrading to the 4G controller. They said it was a 4 week wait and I need to get up quick so I can make some furniture for the house and finish unpacking.

When I can afford it, I'll certainly consider upgrades to the controller and motors.
