The behind-the-scenes path of Sawppy's design and fabrication was told one small (~300 words) story at a time on the build blog, and the storytelling has finally caught up to Sawppy's current version 1.0 status. Now that Sawppy is running around, I'm going to put a pause on hardware iteration for a while and focus on software.

To celebrate this milestone, here's a group picture of Sawppy, plus all earlier iterations of 3D-printed components, with empty spools representing filament consumed.
