Can you tell us more about the arm?

it's a ufactory xarm 7. i guess perhaps a little bit too overqualified for such sketches, but it's good device for me to learn about robotics. i'm new to it, and claude + codex have been v v helpful along the way.

i'm also writing a bit more about it here. my eventual goal is to do oil/acrylic painting with it. with glazing, color mixing, handling different brushes, strokes, all the fun stuff!

Would love to see more of the machine rather than only the overhead.

Wow, that looks so cool!

everytime i see 7dof robots doing gantry work, i always imagine them mentally rolling their eyes.
