Store


    The story of my store begins with my Styrobots, which begins with my acceptance into the Stanford EPGY Summer Institutes Artificial Intelligence program for 2008. In order to go there, I needed money! So, I came up with Styrobots.
    All of the money from the store goes towards my Robotic Fund. This enables me to buy parts for the robots that I enjoy creating!
    I appreciate all help! :D
