 # Why????
 I love old mechanical technology, and I'm always a little sad when beautiful mechanical solutions are replaced by (far more practical) big, bright, colorful LEDs, so I sought to recreate split-flaps with more modern hobbyist-friendly tools.
 
-It's become a passion project of mine over the last 9 years, and I LOVE seeing the displays and art installations others have built based on my open-source design!

+# Acknowledgements
+ - A huge thank you to:
+   - Ben Flatau for being the mastermind behind the giant display and for all his time and help with Open Sauce 2023 and 2024
+   - the City of Palo Alto whose art grant for [Code:ART 2021](https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/Departments/Community-Services/Arts-Sciences/Public-Art-Program/CodeART/CodeART-2021) originally made it possible to build something this big
+   - and the whole team of volunteers that helped assemble/paint/install the 4320 flaps, electronics, and structure
+ - Much of the original design inspiration came from some blog posts by The Beach Lab, which sadly don't seem to be online anymore and I haven't been able to find archives, but IIRC this is where the CR80 card idea and laser-cut drum structure came from
+ - [Dave Madison built and documented](https://www.partsnotincluded.com/building-diy-split-flap-displays/) some great improvements on this design, and has contributed a ton of those changes back to the project, including the font generation script for custom vinyl cut or printed flaps!
+ - And thank you to [everyone else who has contributed to the project over the years!](https://github.com/scottbez1/splitflap/graphs/contributors)

  - [Vestaboard](https://www.vestaboard.com/) makes a compact version for home/office use
  - [Engineezy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_UEkRFP7fs) designed a 3d-printed version as a scoreboard
