Arduino Tipbot
...for a friend (again).


Ingredients
Arduino Nano
(6) 9G Servo
Neopixels
220 ohm Resistor
100np Capacitor
IR Sensor Module
Ultrasonic Sensor Module



Notation(s)
1. Recommend bolts or screws for joint connections -> layered prints are foolish joints for so much weight (coins) and force (up?).
2. Required a minimum of 5V 2.5A to power every thing under load.
3. Use 9GOS (metal gear) bcz, c'mon. Already burned/broke (2).
