Affordable DIY Robot Arm: A Deep Dive into 3D Printing and Servo Motors

To learn more about robotics, Milos was looking for an affordable 5 Degrees of Freedom (5DOF) robotic arm. Although affordable arms like this do exist, they are usually too small and only offer a few degrees of freedom. Robotic arms that satisfy all of his requirements, including build quality and range of motion, usually cost in the range of a few hundred dollars. So, for this episode, Milos sets out to create a high-quality 5DOF robotic arm that everyone can afford!
