Model Overview & Print Notes
Summary
The Sphere-O-bot is an open source hardware+software project.
2021 Update: New software version. Portable Inkscape with everything already installed. More info in the assembly guide.
Originally from Evil Mad Scientist (very cool robots), we have adapted the idea to our electronics and ancillary elements. Software, designs and use is exactly the same. The frame was designed by Attila Nagy
The list of parts to print:
- 1x Spring holder
- 1x MAIN_frame (with support)
- 1x Egg support [v2] for medium suction cup size*
- 1x Pen holder (updated March 2019 to hold more different pen sizes)
- 2x Axis support
- 1x vertical ARM
- 1x M3 nut Knob (replacement for the metal wingnut)
The Electronics are OPEN SOURCE (feel free to replicate it if you want)
