Making a robot that can carve photos into pumpkins
Being a Halloween baby I get a little more into the holiday spirit than most. When I was little this meant inviting a few friends over to my house to trick-or-treat (it’s easy to trick them when your house is a two-building complex with hundreds of apartments’ worth of loot to harvest) and ending the night by changing out of my Strawberry Shortcake costume to look a little more menacing as we started playing five-card draw for candy (the big peanut butter cups were worth the most obviously).
These days I’m still into costumes and have added pumpkin carving to my fall activities. In recent years I’ve started carving likenesses of close family members. To keep things interesting I pretend to do it in the order I think those family members are going to die. Yes my family has a soft spot for dark humor.
My sister has been begging me to do her face for years which makes me think she doesn't trust the psychic powers of my carved pumpkin. This year I finally gave in. Okay sis you're digging your own grave here.
