How 2.0: PB&J Mechanical Munchie Maker

Sure, you could just use a knife, but that would be so....retro. Techno-Guru Brian of technology makeover show My Home 2.0 introduces his sweetest invention ever: an assembly line machine for your favorite sandwich. Great for busy parents and tech-hungry kids.

A wise man once said, give a kid a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and she'll eat for a day...but give that kid a crazy, motorized, conveyor-belted contraption that makes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and that day will be a lot more fun! (And yes, that wise man was me.)

Step 1 Self-analysis

Take a long hard look in the mirror and ask yourself, do I really need a giant machine to make one of the simplest sandwiches in the world?! If you're like me then the answer is a resounding YES!!!!!!!

This project is around 60 hours to build and thats assuming you know what your doing. Because of time constraints I was not able to catalog the process. Every inch of it is custom fabricated with the exception of the motors. I have another project coming up that I cataloged the entire process and I believe it is better then this but thats totally subjective. It should be done in about a week or two. I'm glad you enjoyed my totally pointless invention.

Nice! Like The Muffinator said, with a little more work this instructable could be feature worthy.

Whoa! This is really cool!

You may want to use the Macro function - as some of your pictures are quite blurry. Also, you should either provide more photos that explain your text, or explain the steps better in the text.
For example, "Next I built a tower out of 3/4" square tubular steel and welded it together like this." Does not explain how you welded the tower, nor does it reference a picture that shows how you welded the tower (not the actual welding, but the structure).

This is a great idea - it seems like you put a lot of effort into it, and I'd really like to help make this instructable feature-able.
