I've been wanting to do something like this for a while. It's inspiring to see someone like yourself do it and even make a little money in the process. Great job and thanks for the open-source material!

I just want to say that its amazing how much work you have put into this, and that your giving it away. Thank You..:)

Ive been waiting for the metal version ever since I saw the plastic prototype. Awesome work dude!

It’s people like you that not only make this world a better place but you show us how.

Absolutely incredible work! As if designing and building this wasn't impressive enough, you've gone on to fully document it with complete parts lists, assembly instructions, and even every little detail of building wiring harnesses. Stellar work. Thank you so much for sharing your skills with the rest of us!

This is exactly what I was looking for! I've been wanting to get into engineering, and started by picking up some parts (Arduino starter kit, Nema 23 stepper motor, driver, and PS), but wasn't quite sure what all I needed to make my projects more professional looking, nor how to really get started, in the first place (wasn't sure what terms to search for all the extra bits for the enclosure). The directions for creating the control box will come in very handy! The wiring harness info will be handy for even more than I originally thought, as well. Thank you!

This is an incredibly well documented and executed project. Nice work!

The amount of work put into this project is unbelievable ! Absolutely stunning !

Thank you for all that effort in helping us understand the build.

It´s been almost three years ago since you post this video. I'm sorry I haven't watched it until today. Congratulations!, it's an outstanding work!. It's even greater that you've shared this project, thank you very much!

Awesome job. Thanks for sharing all this wonderful information!

What a beautiful job, down to the details, including fantastic documentation! I think the capability to use your software on another robot is also a fantastic feature. Excellent work, Chris - truly a job well done!

This is absolutely briliant !!! Thank you for sharing this !!!

This is truly beautiful work!! I’m amazed at how quite the arm is and the extensive the documentation is. Thank you for all you’re work. This is definitely a project I will be doing !

You are an absolute legend. Can’t wait to start this project. Thank you so much.

Incredible! you have gained a subscriber for this brilliant project!!!

You did an amazing job on the build! I really liked how it went around the wooden blocks outer perimeter without touching,

Brilliant! This is the first robotic arm that I've seen that has me excited at the prospect of building one. I just saw it on Jason Hughes' KZfaq channel. He's building the aluminum version.

Unbelievable job and so incredibly nice for you to share it - the world needs more like you - Thanks 🙏

This is amazing; I wish I saw it when you first posted it. I'm working on my 3rd robot arm currently, a custom aluminum build, and may use some major parts of your design. I've shopped a lot for brushless motors that could be used instead of steppers, and finally found some that are around 200 watts and deliver enough torque, and can fit with off-the-shelf (or mostly off-the-shelf) gearboxes.

wow, you are truly amazing. Doing this much work to teach people how to build their own robots.

finally a home project that is really close to a real industrial robot, except for the speed. really good interpolation of the movements. great job!!!

Wow crazy combination of many skill. It's absolutly insane ! Great works

Great project and videos Chris, I run a small automation business mainly in highly regulated industries, pharma, nuclear that type of thing and the thing that really strikes me about the professionalism here is the documentation and process around it, I've seen many world leading automation powerhouses do less for mega buck projects. Well done.

You did such an impressive job! The next step may be the integration with a vision system and hopefully one of our FlexiBowl devices :)

Thank you for keeping the internet alive.

Thanks Chris for work and teach also Teacher telling...

Thanks Chris for sharing it with us. Perfect work!

Dude this is frikin awesum... You're my hero was looking for a project like this for more than a year, none had this level of detail or thought in its build and software. Thank you for sharing

WOW!!! What an incredible project and presentation! I am deeply grateful for your generosity of sharing all that precious information. Thank you, and cheers from Outback Australia, Rolf

This is awesome. Well done Chris! Looking forward to making my own.

Amazing job!

Awesome !! I'm going to have to build myself one of those. Right after my cnc mini mill is done.

Thank you the possibilities for the uses of this are tremendous, and this technology, and design, being shared, with man as a whole, is a great and generous gift. I think this is deserving of a piece prize, even if most, don't recognize or appreciate it.

A big thank you for this great documentation!

YOOOOO this is MADNES!!! Man thank you for all of this, I will go ahead and download all the github files just in case something goes wrong and everything is lost. THIS IS MAD. You hella smart!! Obviously you are a professional in his natural habitat.

Chris i keep watching this because believe its incredible what you are offering

The robot's movements are precise. Please upload robot videos more often.

Outstanding contribution. Thank you very much!

wow, what an incredible, comprehensive piece of work! amazing job mr. Annin!

This looks cool, I'll have to investigate ur videos more, thanks for sharing

Super nice project. Really appreciate the fantastic details you provided. I can just imagine how much work it must have been to provide all that. Thanks!

Fantastic stuff. I'm retrofitting a Fanuc ArcMate 120 with DMM drives and plan on using your software as a test platform. It'll be doing silly things in the garage. Thank you for your efforts!

i'm impressed, you have spend a fair amount of time on this... great job!

Very impressive. The work you have done is very impressive.

that robotic arm will be my next project.... Greetings from Peru

Amazing work Chris.

Great Work Chris! What an amazing resource your work is.

Man this is so cool! I've been waiting for someone to make a decent robot arm kit that is actually worth buying. As soon as I save up some cash, count me in!

Thanks for putting your project into the public space.... Obviously a mule load of work. ... If I build the kit .... I will send you a gratuity. ... There is just so much here. It is great help to those of us that are trying to learn how to do this stuff from You-Tube university.

It chops onions like a little kid, just kinda tapping it with a knife. "I'm helping, dad!" "GOOD JOB SON!"

Congratulation Mrs, amazing your work

Excellent works! Thanks for sharing~

Wow, thank you so much for sharing this great work. this is simply awesome.

Hello Chris Anni, this is a great project you have made here....

As usual you rock man. This is now an industrial robot, good job.

Very, very extraordinary guy... Congratulations fantastic work!!!

Chris I really think you should do a video on how you went about designing it. things like: - The payload you were aiming for - How you arrived at the link lengths - How you selected the motors - If you did any FEA simulations for bending and play in your system And also thank you so much for making this open source. I wish this was there when I was doing my dissertation tho :'{ If you want to implement some machine learning stuff on this, please do hit me up :)

Respect, very good work! Thanks for sharing!

That an awesome project. Great job.

The robot uses made me literally laugh out loud! Well done 😂

I'm hooked and would definitely be interested in an aluminum parts kit! I'm going to start building one. Great job!

Fantastic! Thank you for this high value work! Sometime i will purchase you Al Kit

wow... you have been busy! Good stuff!

you sir deserve to love your job

Its very hard makeing a versatile robot I’ve got sum major ideas that are so kooL they seem a bit impossible...BUT WHAT I LIKE WHAT YOU DID THE MOST EVEN MORE THAN THE ROBOT YOU BUILT WAS THE FACT THAT YOU BOTHER TO SHARE EXACTLY WHAT YOU DID...YOUR A NICE GUY THAT MATTERS MUCH MORE THAN YOU ROBOT IN MY OPINION..LOVE THE ROBO THOU...IMPRESSIVE

Wow! This is really good!

Awesome!! Gives me something to aspire to 👍🏻 Thanks

Super great project Buddy thanks so much for sharing it! Great job!

this what i was looking for . i just got into robots . this will be my first robot . just hope is not too late to get all the info thanks Chris

Truly inspiring.

Very nice work and really amazing robot arm, I notice the arm cables touched the wooden bloks around min 6, and the force applied to barometer was it as expected. Thanks for sharing.

wow - on my walk home last night i remembered that old radioshack robot arm toy i used to have and how useful a "profesional" one would be for a project in my labshop. And then here one is! Lovely work mate, don't mind if I copy it!

Thanks Chris for sharing, also thanks for the kinematics videos, very helpful

Amazing Job !! Congrats !

this is just incredible Chris!

Wow! my next project.... thanks for sharing !

Unbelieveable great job!!! I am in a startup - i am sure as soon we have enough money, we will buy one or two to automate some of our routines, from you!

AND THE WINNER OF THE OPEN SOURCE NOBEL PRIZE IS ...CHRIS ANNIN amazing work, you are my hero

Thank you very much for sharing this!

Awesome. I need some tomatoes cut up.... Love it . I found my winter project.
