Introduction

Challenges

Static structures are not sufficient for reproducing most useful objects.

Approaches

Bearings allow frames a variety of motion in relation to each other and other components.

Axial Bearings

Thrust Bearings

Combined axial / thrust bearing

Linear Bearings

STL File - to use the captive hex holes, insert bolts from the inside of the linear bearing, pointing out toward the frame.

Parts
