Day 47 of Learning Robotics!

My external encoder finally arrived and it gives me the opportunity to cut down on weight and space at the elbow joint. While I’m in the middle of designing the arm, I want to make sure I’m saving space and optimizing wherever I can. Even though this is just a prototype, I have to take all the opportunities to improve this arm and have an incredibly compact and beautiful design by the end of it :)
