[bksvol-discuss] Re: Tired of turning pages? Make your own scanner

Dear Tom, Pradik and All,

Obviously I'm as obtuse about techno--humor as I am about techno-facts. I'm not 
all that handy with tools either, unless knitting needles, spoons, spatulas and 
pots and pans count as tools, but from what I've heard, shouldn't you be able 
to make anything work with duct tape?

Always with Love,

Lissi

  You guys are cruel !  You shouldn't use anything but the very best silk and 
rubber bands, that it'll give a little extra bounce to each flip of the pages.

    Donna,

    the whole process wouldn't be fun otherwise.  I was thinking something in 
the line of leggo mounting block and a boddy flipping machine suspended by 
using kite string.  The kite string absolutely would have to be processed with 
extra glass shards.

    PP:  let's make the validation and submission automatic too!

     

    DS:  Will this involve suspending Gustavo upside down using kite string and 
legos??

    Hello all,

     

    The search for the Holy Grail for bookshare volunteers has ended.  Here is 
a perfect solution.  Start the scan, leave, come back, scan done.  New request: 
 let's make the validation and submission automatic too!
