Feedback

A1:

  • Look at Lily bearings (https://www.lily-bearing.com/)
  • Look at silverthin or cadon bearings
  • Thin Section bearings
  • X contact bearings
  • Either use 2 angular contact bearings
  • Switch standoffs for OTS

A2:

  • Add more meat to the connection between the pulley and the joint (bolts in new holes in the poulley)
  • Look at the joint again
  • Reduce the length of the shaft, reposition the bearings

A3 and A4:

A5 and A6:

  •  Overall review design of joints
  • Tap into plate for encoder
  • Build the gearbox without the inner ridge first, then see if you need the ridge
