GuardBot

Howard - The GuardBot Why did I design this? I wanted to watch my house from work someday. In the first phase, the GuardBot is just a radio-controlled robot base that's now available for everyone. But there are many plans to build whatever comes to mind on top of this base. I uploaded this here because I thought someone might want to print a cheap robot base. I didn't upload the name sign since I wanted to keep some uniqueness. If you're planning to print and build this, my humble request is: Name your thing something else than Howard, please. Building it took me three weeks to design and over a month to print and build. All the screws are size M3 with variable lengths between 12mm to 30mm. A tip: Use nyloc nuts wherever possible, especially for small gear axles in differentials.
