It's just a concept right now but I wanted others to see that the scale doesnt quite match. Right now its just stacked on there and neck is a little too long.

Hi Troy.. would you help me with some more specific "how to" use the head ? I saw in the early posts that you was able to use the native hardware.. how did you do that ? and saw later that you took off all the pieces and put some microservos.. Was that a better solution ?

thanks for all your help!

@tevans, Yes it was better in the long run. There was too much looseness in the neck gears. You can see that in an earlier video. I tried tightening it up with some springs but really it was better for me to replace it. It is also less work than making those servo boards. Also, I freed up more space inside for other things if I decide to use it later. Good luck to you!

Hey Troy,

Wow, it took me a little while to catch up. I am so glad to see that you are still working on pinhead. :o)

That base looks nice and light wright.

How are things?
