Building an Inverted Pendulum System The Ups and Downs of Defying Gravity…

Wow!  The metal was shipped and arrived the next day.  It came in this long 5 foot heavy cardboard tube.  Both ends of the tube had a wooden disk inserted and stapled heavily.  I couldn’t remove the staples, so I ended up cutting off one of the ends with a hand saw.  Messy, but it worked.  All the metal pieces look pretty good.
