Bracket Making ?
Im still at the gathering stage for my robot. I have servos, and the controller....But Im not sure where to start with the brackets.
Are there any cheap/easy solutions for brackets to connect the servos ? IVe been to the lynx site and find that their brackets are quite expensive and do not fit my needs.
I thought about getting an erector set but those are made of steel for the most part and will be too heavy. Ill be using dynam 8g micro servos.
I keep coming up short on google looking for brackets or something close that will fit my needs. I do not have any hi end metal fabrication tools. Just hand tools.
I am unsure If I am going to make a Quadro ped or Bi ped. So I would like to have options and some brackets that would be useful in several different configurations.
Does someone have hints, tips , or web sites that would help with my bracket debacle ?

I've had some good success buying some stock anluminum "L" angle and cutting and drilling using common hand tools. You can find it at any Lowes or Home Depot, or on-line at http://www.onlinemetals.com/merchant.cfm?id=61&step=2&top_cat=60
