Design and build a Raspberry Pi robot - draft document

When I first showed my Raspberry Pi based "Ruby Robot" at the Raspberry Jam at Pycon UK, I promised a guide would be forthcoming. I've now finished the first draft of my guide to creating the robot.

The guide does more than just take the reader through the steps to create a robot. It also covers the design process involved in creating the design and some of the decisions I went through in creating the robot.

The robot is just the starting point to create an initial working version. I have several ideas for new features and improvements to the robot, but the idea is for the reader to have their own ideas and turn it into a truly personal robot.

At the moment the guide is a draft pdf document. I intend to publish this as a free eBook in future (including putting it on the Raspberry Pi store). As this will be made available free of charge I don't have a budget for technical reviewers or proof-readers, but would very much appreciate feedback on the guide if anyone finds any mistakes.
