If I have the time go to the .22 range near my house and shoot enough rounds of A-1000/4 targets till I'm in a better mood. Or go out to my wood shop and work on any projects I have going.

If I'm short on time blasting anything from my classical collection dose the trick.
Blasting your CDs/records must cause you to go through them pretty quick. Surely clay pigeons would be cheaper...

Well thanks for the ideas folk. but i have decided to build another robot, i went out and had a no1 haircut first though, i am all ready up to my ankles in screwed up failures on paper, so everyone go hug a tree or they will all end up in my waste bin.

Yes getting CDs/records in the launcher is a pain. :smile:

A-1000/4 targets are paper, it is used in competition shooting for .22

As for blasting my classical music it only harms my speakers on some passages if have the volume up too high.
