Exploded XO

Intended for use by repair centers as an easy means to swap out parts to test their functionality. This would be 'far' preferable to having to disassemble two XOs and stick them back together and keep track of their individuals parts all the time. Yay, efficiency!

Blagosphered!

Prototype 1

Made from a cardboard box and leatherman squirt to cut things and score cardboard.

Keyboard stand

Our first prototype. It needs some sort of extension so the wireless antenna can be held up and plugged in


The plug for the battery can be removed from the frame, which allows us to test batteries more easily, too. Future prototypes will probably include some sort of stand/holder for battery testing as well.
