@makermodsai @fdotinc Maker Arm DIY kit $999 Fully Assembled $1199 Get yours now in the first batch:

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc need a few at @fdotinc!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc We will build them!

@makermodsai @fdotinc Join our discord to follow more about the Maker Arm build process:

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Me after I buy 4 of these

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc I should try it too for “research purposes”

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc impressive!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Thanks bro

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc I LOVE THIS 🔥🔥🔥

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Congrats! Awesome arm

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Thanks always for your support, Roberto!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Bros helping Bros!

@makermodsai @fdotinc exciting demos coming :)

@makermodsai @fdotinc yeh go collect more training episodes

@shengkunye @IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc under $1k for this is crazy

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc this definitely looks like a promising hardware, great job team!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Thanks!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc looks sturdy!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Really nice.. Not shaking like a dog tail..

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Oh I want one so bad. Is it possible just buy the actuators and the controller? I have my own 3d printer

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc insane price point!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Thanks bro! We worked very hard to achieve this price point

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Nice work fellas

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Thanks! Can the Maker Arm help load items to your autonomous moped?

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Congrats guys!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc This is cool!!!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc A capable 6+1 DoF arm under $1k is exactly what the open-source hardware community has been waiting for. Huge congrats to the MakerMods team on the launch.

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc This is really good @Ryan_Resolution!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Thanks!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc 👀👀👀 very cool

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Thanks!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc very cool, whats the arm reach?

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc 67cm

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc that's sick!!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc impressive. it's good to see high qual robotics become more accessible.

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc QDD actuators on all 6 axes for 999$ is wild - those drives usually eat half an arms cost. Full 3d-print structure helps, but whats the actual tradeoff? Payload or speed?

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc trade off is that at $999 it’s a diy kit. Assembled version is $1199

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Stronk arm !!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc We would need your help testing it!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Are you guys in SF?

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Coming over next week

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Ping me, lets catch up

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc This is fantastic.

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Congrats Ryan.

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Thanks, congrats on your launch of Axol!

The real unlock below $1K is not cheaper automation. It is faster embodied iteration. A 3D-printable structure lets builders modify, break, repair, and redeploy the arm locally. That compresses the loop between idea, motion, failure, and training data. Physical AI advances when experimentation becomes cheap enough to be ordinary.

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc lfg!!!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Very cool! Congrats I want to try next time I’m at finc

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc This is sick 🔥🔥

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Thanks!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Looks dope, but how much better are those motors to make it worth the $800 difference from an SO-101

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc @grok how is it useful?

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc Very cool!

@IsaacSin12 @makermodsai @fdotinc I noticed this while teaching robotics too. Students understand sensors much faster when we compare them with human senses temperature sensor = feeling hot/cold, ultrasonic sensor = distance awareness.
