Yeah good call, 3s makes more sence for the 12v motors.
3.7v, 7.4v, 11.1v

Your prints are looking really nice

Latest update on this build... im now designing the actuators using a small gearmotor with an M3 lead shaft at 65 rpm, this will be the actuator to tilt the rippers

Thanks, I actually do post print processing to smoothen the edges and re drill the holes etc... the bottom of the print usually flare out on my ender 3 so i have to file it off more so when i have to join two parts together, i just hate cleaning up material removed from the prints lol...
