Making a four legged walker -

inspired by Kame and Max the Megapod - teaching myself OpenSCAD

Wanted to make a walker that was somewhat easily customizable by adjusting parameters in an OpenSCAD script. Wanted to experiment w/ cheap skateboard bearings. Wanted to use standard servos.

9/22/2019 - mostly just modifying the OpenSCAD script so that it's easy to tweak dimensions and is consistent throughout the script

9/25/2019 - tweaked the servo dimensions a bit - prototype print was a little tight on flange length - bearing seated nicely

First concept of the joint from body to suspended servo

10/3 Single piece joint didn't work out but two halves are great and much faster to print. Tweaks to body have servos seating nicely in body. next steps: mod body where to mount battery/controller - servo to joint interface - was thinking about using simple gears.

11/20 trying to make the servo mount more modular - if I can get happy with this part I can include it, angle it
