I 3D-printed a table-top mechanized claw to spin my coffee mug
Growing up, my father and I watched BattleBots quite often. During the fights where robots were being shredded to pieces, I noticed there was a giant, robotic, claw trophy stand in the background that I thought was more impressive than the bots themselves. I wanted one for myself, but after looking into it some more, I realized the stand is massive, heavy, and expensive. I decided that I could attempt to make one myself, but a smaller, cheaper desktop version to rotate my coffee mug (because why not!).
