How I built this site

Well, i never thought that i had to do my own web page, but after many hours I can say that this was great and I enjoyed it. First i wrote in a new program for me, "Sublime Text 2" , as shown in the picture below, with the help of Jose de los Rios, I got the page that i show you right now.

Idea for final project

Arequipa has a lot of textile manufactur, mainly alpaca clothing, many of them export to Europe, for that, they must first perform quality tests to tissues, one of these tests is axial stress to tissues , which are currently performed manually by operators, however this test varies by force operator, my idea is to perform an automatic machine able to perform these tests for different tissues and be so consistent and reliable.
Mechanical system, it will have only one freedom of degree in the x axis, this link will have a ballscrew with guides, the frame is similar to base of cnc machine
Electronic System, it will have a microcontroller, a strain gauge, servomotor, electronic drivers, LCD, electronic conditioning signal.
Control System, it will have a feedbak loop, with a PID control if is necessary.

Mercurial

I installed the mercurial based in the tutorial I learned the command to upload my web page into the server MIT.
To get all changes from MIT repository into you repository:
hg pull
To add new files
hg add
To commit changes
hg commint -m 'MESSAGE'
To push files to server
hg push
Thanks to José de los Ríos, I show you the videos where you can see the procedures to update the files to the MIT repository,
