They're made of an elastomer that came from spare 'feet' for my computer. Essentially, I replaced two of her feet with rubber pads. They make it much easier for her to move around, especially on the smooth, human-made surfaces she lives on.
...Pics? This sounds interesting looking.
When someone claims that they're good at something, they're usually not.
New things become old and eventually need to be replaced. It's so depressing...

It airs on YTV at 12:00 PM, and apparently at 12:30 PM too, however they are all reruns.

ok thank and sorry
I just received my Yunnan pure gold and some 1998 Pu'erh. The Pu'erh is the highest quality I've ever bought and it tastes so good. I doubt many of you are into chinese teas but whatever.

What kind of Pu-erh did you buy and from where? I really want to try it. I order lots of tea from ito-en or rishi tea, but I want to expand my horizons more. I'm a tea connoisseur, by the way. I've never had Pu-erh that old...

I didn't expect the prosthetic feet to be so big when you mentioned it over the phone but I it doesn't matter, it can handle the weight of them.

The elastomer I used is very, very light. Nobel has no problem moving with them and actually does better on smooth surfaces than she used to because of the nature of her augmentation.
Also, yeah.. It would have bothered me if I failed. I went through a few more complex designs involving very thin alloy wire and kevlar thread straps, but it turned out that the most effective solution was simply to bond a pad to her exoskeleton. Enough of the exoskeleton remained so that she could simply use the new feet. I think I have better designs in mind, but they will be used next time I have a pet that runs into this problem.

Recently, Kai-V put a note on the official Beyblade facebook Fan-Page about the WBO, but the admins of the forum that copied content from this site are turning people against us. If you have facebook, please log in, go to the link below and help me out, cause I'm outnumbered right now. Thanks!

It's named Mei Yi Yuan Nian and I bought it from a specialist tea shop where I live, I know the owner quite well and he fortunately gave me a good price as its quite expensive, he had to get it ordered especially. He once gave me the honour of trying a cup of Pu'erh which dates from the 1970's. It is extremely rare to find a tea that old. Pu'erh is my favourite tea by some distance, it has a sort of earthy but not at all bitter. If you are after it then ebay will be your best bet by some margin i think. The online vendors that sell (at least to the UK) are quite poor when it comes to the range of products. My main gripe about it is the expense, because the best Pu'erh is quite old it often does not come cheap. I equally am a tea connoisseur and love some Ito-en from time to time, though my main focus is on chinese teas.
I've just hit 1000 posts man that took longer than expected.
WOw. Those guys on that FB page are pretty weaksauce. I mean, I've had my problems with the WBO but I don't go parading it around. I mean, c'mon, they steal from Kai-V, who works way too hard for little to no thanks.
(Thanks Kai-V)

The problem is solved. Kai-V went over there and brought some sense into those haters and noobs.
