Well, another project to further divide my free time... I saw a project in one of my old Bytes for a hand-pulled paper tape reader. Very simple - 9 photodiodes, a light, a latch, a pulse-stretcher, and some guide posts. Well, here's the parts I have lying around: a BasicStamp-II, two R/C servos modified for constant running, a few switches, and photodiodes. If I get this thing working over the Christmas holiday, I'll post a construction article. Any recommendations for rubber pinch rollers? I'm thinking rubber stoppers from a plumbing supply shop. These are pre-drilled and come with a washer, bolt, and wing nut.
