Description
My MakerBot's musical tones often set digital mood for each of my lan parties. It furiously pumps out prototypes of whatever models we throw at it between matches. Then we thought why not bring our game to life?
Nothing good ever comes from caffeine induced delusions during 4:00AM LAN parties. Well that never stopped us before. So this is the first step in creating a fully motorized robot.
I introduce to you, the Exoskeleton Crystal Harvester.
The next iteration will have drive motors and Bluetooth communication.

Instructions
1. Print one of each STL.
2. Clean off the print anchors.
3. Assemble as per drawing.
4. Print lots of them because you will need the economy to keep your war machine going.

Why have print anchors in the design files, rather than use a raft?

I didn't use a standard raft because I don't like how much material it consumes. I suppose I could adjust those settings to make a full and thin raft. These print anchors are also easier for me to clean off. I started using them when I saw
DieselG use them in http://www.thingiverse.com/thi...

It wouldn't be bad if you would post the design files either here or GrabCad. :)

Hi thanks for your wonderful model :D I recently made one!
- I was just wondering if you could post all the stls seperately in a zip file and not in plates..as I had some of the utilities build plate fail on me and I had to take a few mins to slice out the other parts in netfabb..no biggie but it will save others a few mins...maybe put how many you need to print in the name etc like trunk_1_off.stl? O:-) (inside this zip)
You got it!
The Separate STL Files.zip holds what you need.
