Since my robot is running on a Raspberry Pi, which is now supported by ARC, I decided to evolve my current project K[8] into a new one called ZOE... First steps will creating a new servo setup which supports Dynamixel Servos,  and a new Conceptual design!!

Ted, Thanks for the tip, Fastenal they are good, I recall got something from them a few years ago, but looking to the above picture I don't like their website:) is not "pocket" friendly...

I use Bearings Inc and McMaster Carr often. The later has downloadable cad files for nearly every part in their catalog...which is massive. I sometimes source parts from them and simply load in the part in my 3d design software as I wait for the part to arrive. Mind you both places will sell to the individuals, but they are industrial and some items have industrial prices.

same model number: 6809-2RS , same dimensions, off-course is not approved for space exploration:).

Sorry to spam the thread with Ball Bearings, I hope can be useful for others.

Still open for more suggestions...:)
