§ 01 — Notes
First 2013 project where “sketch before print” actually worked. Earlier builds discovered interference only after printing. The ferris-wheel problem: six photo clips must rotate around the hub without colliding — so the max radius of each clip and the inner rim diameter had to be calculated on paper first.
§ 02 — Motor
Stepper + L293D + Arduino. Stepper chosen to stop precisely on each photo. A later blog note that “it should have been a DC motor” is hindsight, not the build — the finished piece is the stepper version.
§ 03 — Afterward
Only two low-res originals survive from the 2013 blog (Google Photos then had no notion of “originals”), so they look rough — keeping them is the monument.
