I see that in some posts, this is machined aluminum, but in the guide it says to print it. Is the AR4 kit supposed to come with it or should it be printed?
Hello, this part should be printed. The aluminum versions I was having laser cut were not any better than a good 3D print - the cost of having the parts machined went up a fair amount so to not raise prices I made this a 3D printed part. Im trying to keep the cost of the robot from going up - needs to stay below $1900 for the arm itself.
