Item 1. Security and Issuer.
(a) This Schedule 13D relates to shares of the Common Stock, no par value, of Pro-Dex, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Issuer” or the “Company”). The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is 2361 McGaw Avenue, Irvine, California 92614.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
This Schedule 13D is being filed jointly by

(collectively, the “Farnam Group”).
On January 22, 2013, the Issuer announced that Raymond E. Cabillot was elected to serve on the Issuer’s Board of Directors.
Previously, the Farnam Group (except for Mr. Haeg), William James Farrell III, another nominee, and the AO Partners Group (as defined below), jointly filed a Schedule 13D and amendments thereto (as amended, the “AO Partners/Farnam Schedule 13D) and may have been deemed to constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). With the Company’s shareholder meeting completed, and Mr. Cabillot elected as a director, these parties are no longer filing a joint Schedule 13D. The Farnam Group expressly disclaims the existence of any ongoing arrangement with the AO Partners Group that could constitute a “group” and disclaims any beneficial ownership of securities held by Mr. Farrell and the AO Partners Group.
The “AO Partners Group” consists of the following:
| ● | AO Partners I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“AO Partners Fund”). |
| ● | AO Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and General Partner of AO Partners Fund (“AO Partners”). |
| ● | Glenhurst Co., a Minnesota corporation and wholly owned by Nicholas J. Swenson (“Glenhurst”). |
| ● | Nicholas J. Swenson as the Managing Member of AO Partners, as the sole owner of Glenhurst and as an individual. |

(d) - (e) During the last five years, neither Farnam Fund nor the principals of its General Partner have been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and similar misdemeanors) nor have the parties been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which such individual was or is subject to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting, or mandating activity subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

The Farnam Group acquired shares of Common Stock because it believes that the Common Stock was undervalued and represented an attractive investment.
The Reporting Persons may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Persons may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them.
To the extent the actions described herein may be deemed to constitute a “control purpose” with respect to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, the Reporting Persons have such a purpose. Except as noted in this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons has any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D. Such persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
Item 5. Interests in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) The Fund beneficially owns 194,390 shares of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer, representing approximately 5.8% of the Common Stock (based upon 3,340,684 shares outstanding on February 1, 2013, as reported in the Issuer's most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2012).
(b) The Fund does not share voting and dispositive power with respect to any shares.
Mr. Cabillot and Mr. Haeg share voting and dispositive power of the Common Stock beneficially owned by Farnam Fund by virtue of such entity’s and person’s relationship to the other as described in Item 2(a).
