SSS - Servo Suspension System

This is my first experiment with the MakerBot. I am totally thrilled with this machine!!!

SSS (servo suspension system) is designed to support standard servo motors and act as a basic suspension. It is still a work in progress and has not been tested yet.

Will update results as soon as possible (still waiting to have my lab back).


I would like to know everyone's opinion on this  :)

Mr. Suspense

Just starting a build blog for the Mr. Basic Challenge II.  When I get some more progress I will post pics and make a robot page.

I'm still developing ideas, but I liked Gareth's work on a suspension system for the original Mr. Basic Challenge, so I'm starting with that.  My suspension will use steel cable instead of polymorph for a flexible power transfer system.  Ultimately,I want to try a four wheel independent suspension, but I will start with the front axis being on one suspension platform and the rear on another.
