Summary of Handmade Claw
This article outlines a six-step DIY guide to building a wooden claw machine controlled by an Arduino. The process involves cutting or printing parts, assembling the structure, coding the microcontroller, and wiring components. The project requires specific hardware to operate the claw mechanism effectively using servos and potentiometers for control.
Parts used in the Wooden Claw Machine:
- 4 SG90 servos
- 4 Potentiometers
- Half inch nuts and screws
These 6 easy steps will tell you how to make a wooden claw machine controlled with Arduino.
Step 1: Print All of Your Pieces
Either handcut or laser cut all of your pieces
Step 2: Aquire Your Parts
You will need 4 SG90 servos, 4 Potentiometers, and a box of half inch nuts and screws.
Step 3: Put You Pieces Together
Step 4: Code Arduino
Step 5: Wire
Step 6: Finish!
