It is done! We'll technically last week it was done. And also there is a lot of features that I didn't get to... but I made a video!
If you haven't already seen it, here's a link to Puzzle Bot Part 2.
I was worried that breaking a project like this into two parts might not work, but I am happy to see that people like it. This is good to know for future projects that might not easily fit into a single video. For example something that goes brrrrrrrrr
I'm pretty sure I have a zero percent track record of predicting how hard projects will end up being. I had originally selected this project thinking it would be a nice, relatively-simple project to do in the midst of moving my shop.
In retrospect that prediction may be the most wrong I have ever been about anything, and that's saying something. It was really really really hard.
I struggled to fit all of the wrong approaches, waiting ages for the computer to give me results, and general wheel spinning into the final video. I cut a lot of that out because it got confusing and in my opinion annoying to watch. I'll be scheduling a directors commentary in the near future where I'll go through the video and share more of these juicy details that didn't make the cut.
Although it was challenging and at times painful, I love a good challenge. It's also so awesome when you finally get a machine working! Thank you all for your support. It enables me to spend serious time on projects like this. It means a lot!

Still can’t figure out how to join the discord server and I’m sponsoring with boobs.
