Hi ChuckCrunch

This is a very cool project and very well design and construction !

I like very much your control system and the polycaprolactone use.

Do you have an address to buy some, please, (I live in France) on the web perhaps ?

Thanks for sharing your work :slight_smile:

The first video make me laugh a lot : a suicide robot in live (at the end LOL)

Keep the good work and have fun
