Base(Platform)
(more stuff here)
 * 1) Arm Complex
 * 2) 96-well plate holder(1 needed)
 * 3) Attach the position 1 of a 15-brick to the position 1 of a 13 brick.
 * 4) attach the position 1 of a 13-brick to the position 15 of the 15-brick.
 * 5) Attach a 15-brick to the position 11's of the two 13-bricks.(It should make it look like a parallelogram with two legs)
 * 6) Double Arms(2 needed)
 * 7) Arms(4 needed)
 * 8) Attach the position 1 of an 11-brick to the position 11 of another 11-brick.
 * 9) Numbering goess from top to bottom.
 * 10) Attach the position 5 of an arm to the position 1 of a 15-brick.
 * 11) Attach another arm's position 5 to the position 15 of the 15-brick.
 * 12) Numbering: Left arms are labeled as with a prime before(like '3, plural like '1's), right arms have a prime after (like 3', plural like 1"s), and the 15-brick is labeled as before.
 * 13) Attach the left leg(end) of a plate holder to the '1's of two double arms(one above, one below).
 * 14) Attach the other leg to the 1"s of the double arms.(There isn't any choice for whether to put it above or below).
 * 15) NXT Brick Complex (1 needed)
 * 16) NXT Brick Sub-Complex (1 needed)
 * 17) Attach the 2-Sensor-Hole position of an NXT Brick to the 2-position of a 13-brick.
 * 18) Attach the 5-Sensor-Hole position of the NXT Brick to the 2-position of another 13-brick.
 * 19) Nxt-Brick numbers as before, the 13-brick on the 2-Sensor Hole position is the same with a prime before, and the other 13-brick has a prime after.
 * 20) Attach the 4-hole of a 11-brick to the '12 hole of the NXT Brick Subcomplex, and the 8-hole of the 11-brick to the 12'hole of the Subcomplex.
 * 21) Attach the 1-hole

Pipet Holder

 * 1) Crossbeams(2 needed):
 * 2) Attach the center of an H-Bracket to position 2 of a 9-brick.
 * 3) Attach another H-bracket to the 9-brick in position 5.
 * 4) Put the crossbeams such that the H-Brackets are aligned.
 * 5) Attach two 9-bricks to the H-brackets, on the positive side of the other 9-bricks.(hole-hole)
 * 6) Attach a black H with a +-shaped hole in it to the 8,9 position on a non-crossbeam 9-brick.
 * 7) Push a 12-rod through the +-shaped hole.
 * 8) Put the following onto the rod: a full bushing, two worm-toothed gears(aligned), and another full bushing.

Good Features

 * 1) Simple idea

Neutral Features

 * 1) Radial Coordinate System(CS)
 * 2) *Can be argued as bad, since the 96-well plate well CS is difficult to convert to the Radial Coordinate System.

Bad Features

 * 1) Top-Heavy
 * 2) Front-Heavy:topples easy
 * 3) Small motor errors leads to big well errors
 * 4) The NXT Brick on the base is difficult to get out.
 * 5) Can get stuck easily.
