Dear Angel and comunnity. I've got a few doubts. I'm mounting my Thor and thinking on potential improvements.
First of all, which is the weight of the whole arm? And then I'm wondering whether if we apply some optimization in all the printed parts so that we could reduce around a 30% of the whole arm weight, could we be able to have a higher payload?

Many thanks and best regards
David

Hi David!

I'm not sure about the total weight of Thor... I would have to check it.
About the optimization, it sounds great. Of course we would be able to increase the payload by reducing the arm weight. I designed Thor without caring too much about the printed pieces weight, so it could be a very nice improvement!

Best regards,
Ángel LM
