    Maybe an earth bound Robo could be mounted in a 3 axis stepper driven gymbal. Few mods to the slicer and Marlin and any overhang is no problem.

    I've made a few (guys at work were enamored with it) ratchets. Came out beautifully using IC3D ABS. Cut one in half to show the mechanism.

    its a relatively easy print too. I printed one and cut it in half to display at work. Everyone was so curious as to how I could print a PIP ratcheting device.
