Custom PCB's, Plastics, and More!


Making robots at home is really enjoyable. What's even better is when you can custom make your own parts! So that's exactly what I've been working on. After a little research, I figured out how to make custom plastic parts and custom PCB's! For the plastic, I will use simple molds from nuts, bolts, and other items of that matter. I will then melt down some InstaMorph� plastic beads for the molds. For the PCB's, I will use the copper clad and ferric chloride method. Along with the drilling of course. For now, I have two PCB's made. These two, in fact, are for the official SimpleBot. Thanks for reading and I'll be updating you guys with photos of the progress.
