The video goes from raw parts to a working arm that can pick things up.

At the end I test it by picking up small objects to see how it handles weight. Components used: Arduino Uno PCA9685 16-Channel Servo Driver 6x MG996R Servo Motors 3D printed PLA parts (base, shoulder, elbow, wrist, gripper) 5V 4A Power Supply Breadboard + jumper wires Want to add Bluetooth control?
