1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION ROBOT ARM The ROBOT ARM is an affordable robot for the hobbyist. It is ideally suited to learn the basics of electronics, mechanics and programming. Contents of the package: - Complete Robot Arm construction set (mechanics WITHOUT electronics) CD-ROM containing all manuals - 1.2.
2. Required tools Needle-nose pliers Sidecutter Screwdriver set Screwdriver Double open-end wrench Included Included Selftapping screws (Parker) Selftapping screws behave like wood screws i.e. they cut a thread into the material in a rotating motion that functions like a nut. To this end, this type of screw has a larger thread and a sharper tip as a normal screw. Selftapping screws have a cutout at the top that makes it easier to drill into the material.
