Hello robotics Friends... Just started to think that, it will be cool to make a robotic arm.Whether it has 5 DOF (degree of freedom) 4 DOF or 3-2DOF it will be cool just to make one and controlled it either make a transmitter or atomonously.Well i had a deep thought, why don't i make a robotics arm, with just some of the stuff i got lying around my house. And better yet let me make a Robotics arm, and make it mobile. So i Grab my first bot and decided to start building.

Here is a sketch i drawed about the design.Sorry for the quality of the camera or the drawing.It's going to be a Arm with 2 degree of freedom , Not counting the mobility of the bot.i will use 4 servo's. one for the shoulder one for the elbow one for the wrist and then one for the gripper.I started to make the shoulder it coming alone quit good. 

Will be posting more, As i go. :)
