Summary

droger's adaptation of andromeda's quadruped is awesome! I was planning on making my own design months ago. Life got in the way for a while, and BOOM, someone saved me a ton of time! A heartfelt thank you for that :)

Small problem though - the original design didn't fit the cheap 9G micro servos that I had on hand.

So I spent a smaller amount of time optimizing the design to fit the servos I (and a lot of other people might) have in stock.

I zipped up the OpenSCAD versions of the parts in case you need to tweak them to fit your servos or printer tolerances.

NOTE: what's shown in the picture are some mid-prototype parts. The finals are actually nicer with rounded corners and whatnot. Fancy!

UPDATE UPDATE: I cleaned up the OpenSCAD files in the zip package. I know some of you have servos with slightly different dimensions. The new scads should be parametric so that you can tweak a few dimensions to get parts that will fit your servos!

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: the parametrics now support different servo horn dimensions!

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: I've included a beta version of the design intended for those that have the Tower Pro version of the blue servo, based on communicated measurements. No guarantees: I do not have one of these servos to test the fit. I do have some on order, but it could be a couple weeks before they arrive. The beta STLs are available in the zipped archive named case_qp_tower_stls-beta.zip .
