Doodle-Bot

A vibration driven drawing robot. You'll need to do a bit of soldering and gluing before following the assembly instructions. You'll need to glue the elastic connectors into the arms. And you'll want to put some putty, clay, sand or something similar into the counter weight and glue the cap on. You may need a dab of glue to hold the counter weight tightly onto the motor shaft. You'll want to solder some wires with loops on the ends to your motor and switch (see motor and switch in attached picture). You will need: Some m3 screws and nuts. Some thin wire (black/red) A small piece of thicker wire/or something round and conductive to act as a batter connector. A switch (shown in pic) A 3v to 5v motor Some Markers Some small elastics super glue/solder/soldering iron. I use the loops and screws to make the "electronic" connections, but of course you can skip these steps if you want and just wire the thing up... The instructions in the PDF assume you've soldered and glued everything beforehand. I've included some sketchup files so you can adjust as needed. It's been a couple of years since I've designed this, so if something is out of wack, let me know. And let me know if you have any questions, and I'll post any help I can.
