Operation Video of Hydraulic Arm
Reflection
What worked well:
I succeeded in building a functioning model of a cardboard hydraulic arm.
I anticipated the strength of the cardboard sheets to be insufficient, however it turned out to be adequate to support the operation of the hydraulic arm.
Areas of improvement:
3D printing parts to make a plastic-based mechanical hydraulic arm (which would be much cooler than this, which is made out of cardboard sheets).
Making sure that the actuating syringes do not occupy any volume of air before attaching the control syringes to the actuating syringes.
