The instructions to build OpenVMP robots are starting to take shape in the models repository. Please, reach out to us if you are ready to offer your CadQuery skills for publishing the rest of the blueprints.
Once the entire set of blueprints is published, anyone will be able to build their own robot given the necessary parts are purchased, and the necessary metal cutting and 3D printing tools are available. An effort is made to restrict the choice of parts to a limited set of components available on the market at an affordable price. For example, most of actuators of the robot Don1 are NEMA17 stepper motors similar to those found in most of consumer grade 3D printers.
