Had to order a new Raspberry PI 4 today because my 3b+ died that I use for my OctoPrint system. I guess it just could not handle the heat in the garage down here in Florida... It's always something... sooner or later my wife is going to disown me if I don't stop buying stuff

I know the feeling. I'm in Florida also (Cape Coral) and everything I own seems effected by the heat, humidity and salt in the air. Unless it's made of plastic of some kind, a good powder coat or fiberglass it will rust away or burn up. Wood even rots away. Ugh. Where in FL are you if you don't mind me asking?

I've thought about stopping telling my wife when I buy stuff. She really doesn't mind the expense but sees it as an opportunity to justify buying things she wants (shoes, clothing). LOL. I guess it's her way of keeping my spending under control.

Good morn smiller29,

Besides my wife doesn't enjoy all the parts I have purchased in the last 3 years, (she really doesn't say much) one room in my house is totally unusable for everyday use.

I have pieces and parts for years to come  :-)

So, I slowed down my robot inventions. I can always rework some of them.

oh well, rolls back and forward, Jd does all his tricks, with audio

Dave I live about 25miles north of Orlando in Seminole country.

Hehe, EzAng, JD has a nice ride there !

Do you have any pics of your printed gearboxes? Inquiring minds want to know

Here are some drawings of the Joint #2 box and what the guts look like in both Joint#1 and Joint #2. I will post a picture of the print once it comes off the printer today.  Fingers crossed that I will be able to get the servo in it...

It should be noted I am also working on a NEMA-17 version of actuator.

I had a layer shift in my print of the J2 joint so I have to reprint it but the good thing is the servo fits now so that is a good thing...  Picture will follow once I get a good print in about 13 hours from now...xD
