    Help WANTED :- Raspberry Pi - Old B model

    Guys,

    I have been working lately making 3D printed hands for kids via e-NABLE.
    One of the hands I produced is here :- http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...-given-5338767

    Now I have bought a fuel3d scanify 3D scanner, its good but costs over £1k and I want to produce a cheaper version to help people in e-NABLE.

    My plan is to build one of these but smaller to work as an arm scanner - http://www.pi3dscan.com
    I need to source 12 Raspberry Pi B models and 12 camera modules.

    Does anyone have an old one spare they would consider donating to the cause !

    oE.

    This is a really admirable thing that you're doing, my utmost respect for that.

    PM me an address I have a B here that I've not used since Christmas. You can have it.

    Haven't got one but I'm happy to buy one for the cause. I can't imagine the look on the faces of these kids when they get their new hands.

    A B+ is £16.50 at RS at the moment. PM me your address and I'll get it sent direct to you.

    To confirm is this what is needed?:

    As of yet I am still short of a few more, but I need to get the camera modules and that won't happen for a few weeks due to a new build for another recipient !
    If you guys have them spare then it would be great to get more donations.

    PM me your address mate, sure i got a couple here you can have
    You know he grew up as a little shitspark from the old shitflint and then he turned into a shitbonfire and driven by the winds of his monumental ignorance he turned into a raging shitfirestorm. If I get to be married to Barb I'll have total control of Sunnyvale and then I can unleash the shitnami tidal wave that will engulf Ricky and extinguish his shitflames forever. And with any luck he'll drown in the undershit of that wave. Shitwaves.

    Have you thought about contacting the raspberrypi foundation - they're a charity and might help with this.
