For the perfect fit, perfect rotation, manual dispensing trials.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;It was made of 2 seperate parts, placed on the table to simply see alignments, see chip slot tolerances.&#xA;Surprisngly, the disc mechanism was promising it might actually work! This is good news as I was sceptical at first- will this ever work? Will a vertical feeder be able to sweep out chips?&#xA;The answer was yes! But it was not perfect of course. I made the depth of each slot higher than the chip itself. This meant that it would always stack 2 chips to feed out &amp;ldquo;1&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

This marks the day I started, let&amp;rsquo;s see how long it takes to actually get it done ;k&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;After learning how to write on a split keybaord (ErgoDox Ez). I literally spent over 2 weeks (~6hrs/day) on monkeytype.com to learn how to write again, more about it in a deticated post! Anyways after a while idea came to my mind: &amp;ldquo;I need a smaller, more portable and possibly even wireless keyboard?&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
