Yes, this is a teaser... I will post more content of it and a tutorial as well. *Update* What i've been working on lately is to shorten down the legs. I tested it today, and it worked a LOT better than before. I'll see if i can manage to get a video soon ( I'll have to borrow a camera from someone :/ ). It still have some slight problems lifting the EEE PC, but it does work at least. *New Update*  Fritsl uploaded three new videos, which is the later three ones on this page. Thanks!
