Re: Archiving your notes via smartpen
I completely left out the fact that it has apps you can download and install in it. It has a piano app with which you can draw a piano keyboard on a piece of paper, and the pen reads your key placement and when you tap the keys on the drawing, the proper piano note will sound from the pen speaker. ...

Re: Sanding motor
Not wild about drums, it's not a very useful shape for pipe making, in my opinion. You need the edge of a wheel to get inside angles, and you need a larger surface to keep the ripples down. The sanding drums don't have a very large area so they'll wear out quickly and I'm guessing will be somewhat ...
