I am still working on the strain gauging. Planning to be complete by February (work & family commitments). I'll post photos of the testing setup in a couple weeks.

I'm surprised these have not sold quicker... so far - 5 gone. 1 to the UK 1 to Canada 3 to Australia ZERO to USA - kind of crazy. Oh well... Here is a photo of the Premium Kit: ![[Linked Image]](http://www.ns-micro.com/~phanson/pics/640_480/PremKit.jpg)
