In this video I start work on making an Arduino Powered device that will open and close my curtains!

By using some rope and a continuous rotation servo I am able to create a pulley system that will serve as the backbones to the movement system.
I 3D print the pulleys and the main control box and test the mechanical systems.
In second episode we finish the automated curtain project!
IMPORTANT
I have since learnt that there is a 500mah thermal fuse on the USB line. This means that the servo mustn't be drawing as much as I originally thought. If you wish to bypass the the regulator and fuse you have to use the VIN pin. I'm sorry for any confusion this has caused and I apologize for making the mistake.
