About I am a 64 yr old man. I use a wheelchair to get around. I have a manual and a power chair. I try to use the manual chair as much as possible to get some physical exercise. For fun I design and build things, currently I am building some big planting boxes that I can access from my chair. These are heavy and are a real strain on me to move them. Most things I build are electronics, I bought my wife a pair of duck statues and mounted them on a box. Using a micro-controller they rotate just a little bit every few seconds. They are quite a surprise for people when they see them. We have 5 large dogs and live on 5 acres in SW Florida. We are also working on making ourselves self sufficient, by raising our own food, and by adding solar power to our home.

How does it work?
