Flexure Gripper and Demo Board

Follow
Amy Makes Stuff

**UPDATE**
**I am considering making the gripper available as a kit for those who want to play with the mechanism, but are less excited about laser cutting it. I would make the gripper from a different material so they would last much longer than lasercut Delrin. I'm thinking ~$20 a kit, but that could come down a lot with volume. Please comment below if that interests you at all.**

I made this gripper and demo board to accompany a talk on flexures that I plan to give at the Hackaday Superconference 2019. I have often found flexures to be a super useful in various personal projects, since they can help create such satisfying mechanisms. Hopefully you will find them enjoyable, too.
