Beveled camshaft arms for Strandbeest

Beveled camshaft arms for Strandbeest is a downloadable 3D printable model with hosted files, creator attribution, and Creative Commons CC0 1.0 details.

Original creator description

These are replacements for several parts of Printable Strandbeest by Snelon. If you've had issues with the Strandbeest legs seizing up, I think this might alleviate one possible cause. I found my camshafts were rubbing against and occasionally catching on the adjacent frame ends, it depended on how much the drive train had wobbled at any given moment. You could just sand everything down, but this seems to me a little bit more foolproof. Use these instead of the original camshafts and install with the rounded side facing the nearest frame end. Thanks to Snelon for the Strandbeest design, and to danrwill for the invaluable assembly guide! This hosted file keeps creator credit and Creative Commons CC0 1.0 details.
