20sffactory Community Robot Arm started in January 2019 as a maker support group on Facebook for makers attempting to build the original RobotArm by Florin Tobler. The group has expanded into a bigger community since 2019, which has sustained major enhancements & revisions to Florin’s software and hardware, evolving the robot into Community Robot Arm and the open source repository 20sffactory manages. The development & improvement of the robot relies on ideas, exchanges and sharing from the community. This page provides a list of notable sharing in the community to credit work & ideas from botbuilders. (repo) means the sharing has been adopted into 20sffactory robot resource or github repository.
