I Made a Robot Arm to Hold My Camera [$500]

This time on 3DprintedLife, I build a ridiculously powerful robot arm. Capable of lifting 5lbs at full extension. But I didn't build a full arm, just most of it. 5 Axes to be exact, with the 6th coming soon! Then I strap on my phone and film some stuff using the robot. This video has it all; 3D printing, harmonic drives, custom electronics, breaking stuff, fixing stuff, and breaking it again.

If you'd like to build this project yourself, you can find the files here. (I would highly recommend waiting for the re-design unless you know what you're doing)
