FIGURE 4.21
Cut, bent, and drilled
aluminum for the
Frogbotic’s body.
The next step is to fabricate six mounting brackets that will be used
to attach the robot legs to the body and to fasten two leg sensor limit
switches. Use Figure 4.22 as a cutting and drilling guide to fabricate
pieces A, B, C, D, E, and F out of 1/16-inch thick aluminum. Pieces
A and B measure 1-3/4 inches in length, pieces C and D are 1-1/2
inches in length, and pieces E and F are 2-1/4 inches in length. Drill
the holes with a 5/32-inch drill bit where indicated in Figure 4.22.
The finished pieces are shown in Figure 4.23.
