Construction of Freddy Fazbear has begun!

The fun work of building Freddy from FNAF had begun for Project 87, with the arrival of Actobotics aluminum components! We decided to go for a premade modular system when it came to designing the endoskeleton, to make the overall process easier. The materials weren't terribly expensive, albeit nowhere as cheap as modern 3D-printing (which we now fully use).

As for what we would begin with first, we started with the lower body. That mean everything from the hips and pelvis down to the feet. Starting with the pelvis, we added on servos for driving the thighs and rotating the legs.

Next we added knee and ankle joints:

Finally, we added some very simple (and flat) feet. These were made from a combination of Actobotics and Vex components.

Next up would be the task of wiring the servo motors and mounting the electronics and power supplies.
