Building A Robotic Arm
Posted September 27, 2008 by Chris
This project write-up has a nice overview of what is necessary to both physically build a robotic arm and to control it with electronics. This is a complicated process but the author breaks it up into pieces so you can understand how to build it on your own!

Thanks for this post it will be of great use, My son has to do a science project
for school and
the robotic arm was what he was wanting to do, we bought one of the kits and he assembled it. but i think we will put this to use and see about building our own.
The pvc is the easy part If you have a look at my blog you will notice we have just installed a good bit and I have lots of scrap left.

I was suggested this web site by my cousin. I am not sure whether this post is written by him as no one else know such detailed about my difficulty. You are amazing! Thanks!
