Arm3 instructions update

arm3 base assembly

If you follow us on instagram you’ll see last night I shot ~15 photos in a row as I assembled an Arm3. Those pictures have now been added to the Arm3 assembly instructions to make things easier.

A more subtle new feature is that the laser cut files have been updated. Every wood part has a unique number in the design, and those numbers were written next to each part on the wood, a bit like the plastic scale models I assembled as a child.

These kind of parts were my inspiration for numbers on the side.

I felt that it would look better if the part numbers weren’t visible on the final assembly. I’ve been taught the error of my ways, in no small part thanks to your awesome feedback. The designs have been reworked and now the part numbers are directly written onto each part. This way they are easy to identify, even after they’re popped out of the frame. It’s as minimal as it can be without sacrificing utility. I like it, it’s good.
