Re: DIY Animatronics??
How is it that the "DIY Animatronics" got started and still the bugs that plague the rest of the board are left unfixed? There are no email notifications of posts, and the 'SUBMIT' for posts is buggy and goes off to hyperspace. Just wondering! Hi Lemp In answer to your question, the admin...
