Almost Completed the 1st Prototype Arm

Robot Arm Closeup

I was able to get the first prototype of the Robotic Arm almost put together. This is a five DOF arm and I believe that the arm is a little too heavy to work correctly, even with the offset springs. I will try this out again this week and in the mean time, I will order other parts to make the forearm shorter to keep the servos from drooping. I just want to try it out for size and usage. Thereafter, I will be converting the arm to something more useful as soon as I see the new ruleset.
