    Dude. We are about to sell our home because clearing snow off our long, steep driveway is a massive pain. It has taken years off our lives. We were seriously looking into snow removal robot but inflation and tariffs put that way outside our price range. You might be underestimating a potentially huge market. I would’ve never thought that’s something that could be DIY’d!

      Dude, it takes a couple weeks just to map the area that needs to be cleared, and have exactly zero desire to monetize my hobby. figuring in my powerful need to eat, and have a home, if I even were to sell it, it’d be just as expensive as comercial options with far, far less support.

      which is also why I’m not releasing the design files on it. I don’t want to deal with the inevitable questions.

        Fair enough, life is complicated enough as it is! 🫡 Glad you were able to simplify at least one part of it. I completely understand not monetizing a hobby, as it would suck all the joy out of it.
