Treadwell WED-15 droid build : Part 13B - The Claw [actuation]

Just a small post, this refers to the Claw activation. It’s been a while, as have been working on a major side project and forgot to mention this (I think).

So the micro/nano servo I had bought a few years ago for R4’s ‘life form scanner’ was dug out of retirement 😂 and just like Obi-Won, found itself a new purpose.

These two images show the outside profile. The split line is down the vertical middle, two half's printed flat face down. The slot in the side is to view the servo [as why not lol] and the hole in the opposite side is the location for the M3 screw that fits into the Brass knurled insert, in the other half, to hold pieces together.

The 3D printed end piece I decided needed to be modified, away from being screen accurate, in order to be able to mount the servo inside of it.
