Step 11: Add the leg axles

With the motors mounted, the leg axles can be added. Add the front axles first. The front of my robot is indicated in the first picture below. Take a 5" 3/4-10 bolt and insert it so it is sticking out of the frame. Next, add two washers and two 3/4-10 standard hex nuts. Tighten the nuts. Repeat this process for the other front axle.

Add the rear axles next. Insert a 3" bolt pointing out from the frame. Add 3 washers. Repeat for the other rear axle.

Finally, add three washers to each drive bolt on the motor linkages.
