    Awesome pumping action Zach! The new NYCR logo ought to be one of the colors of your pumping goo – it’s nice and tasteful and all but it would really jump out of my bookmarks list if it was that tomato goo color. Oh well – Pump on, brother!

    I built a device that has 6 stacked peristaltic pumps driven off a single drive motor. A solenoid on each movable roller surface chooses what pump actually moves material to choose a single liquid or a mixture of liquids in varying ratios. Laser cutting the prototype would have been nice.
