Hand-Made MeArm

I tried to make robotic arm that I can control with arduino and you can see the results.

In this instructable I am going to show you how to make MeArm and in other one I will show you how to control it in multiple ways.

You can find original project here: MeArm

Step 1: Template

If you have CNC machine you can cut this template with it but if you don't have it and you still want it you can make it same way I did.

First print template and cut paper parts.

Step 2: Materials

All you need is 4 servo motors and one A4 plywood size.

Step 3: Cut All Wooden Parts

Step 4: Connect Pesces

You will need 3mm screws or you can improvise like I did.

Step 5: Connect Joints

Step 6: Attach Catcher to the Joints

Step 7: Done

Now you can connect servos to arduino and control your MeArm and I will show you how to do it in next instructable.

+Bonus I made special part for pen so I can easily draw anything with my robot arm.

This project was supported by Srpska Nauka.

Nice! May I Use This For My Science Experiment? If So, Can i Know Where Did You Get The Servo Motors? It Would Be Much Appritiated, Thank You! :D

[Dzefri]

Thank you, this is open source project it is not mine and you can use it, I bought motors online.

hey looks great!

before I try it i d like to see a video though. any chance of that happening?

[Dzefri]

Thank you, I have a video but I don't know how to post it on instructables, I can send you in email or you can wait untill I post instructable of controling MeArm. :-D

[Ruben Marc Speybrouck]

i think the best way is to upload it to youtube. instructables supports youtube vids natively just through the link to the vid.

i wont post my email here but I would really like to see it working. it looks so cool ;)

[Dzefri]

I posted video, you can check it it is on last step.

[Ruben Marc Speybrouck]

[Dzefri]

Yes, I used SG90 and thank you. :-D
