Thank you @Holy That gives me a really good guide (especially because I am in Canada :-) Your build is very clean so appreciate you giving me the break down. Looks like labour is your biggest expense and your attention to detail shows. Thanks for sharing.

@Nink, Sure no problem. Let me know if you need anything else. I'm here!

@holy1, I see you’ve add something between the back pistons on the stomach. I’m wondering what you did there.

@Bob, It's a tilt re-stricter. I put it on when not using the tilt forward function so it stays in one place. I use an elastic to hold it in place.

Here is the file and stl.

 Tiltrestrictorv1.stl

The .step file won't upload.

Thanks, I’ll have a look at that. Does your stomach move quite easily or does it need a push move it? I have to give mine a good push to move it when the power is off.

No, it needs a push to move but if the arms are straight out holding something and the base servos are released it will drift forward. The tilt restrictor will prevent that but will still allow leaning backward a few degrees.
