While continuing to add to Sawppy build instructions, I seemed to have run into some kind of limit on the Hackaday.io infrastructure. As I continued to add pictures to later assembly steps, the pictures from earlier steps started disappearing!

I can recover them, I'll just have to retrieve the originals from my camera's memory card and redo all the photo cropping and resizing. But with this loss of data I'm moving Sawppy build instructions elsewhere. I like the format of iFixit.com but their platform spinoff Dozuki.com starts at $20/mo and that's more than I can justify for this hobby project. I'll keep looking for other alternatives.

In the short term, I'll put instructions on Github.com. It's a bit of a square peg in a round hole but I have more confidence pictures won't surprisingly disappear from my Github repository.
