$15 Gripper

Looks interesting, $15 shipped: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Makeblock-Robot-Gripper-Makeblock-Arduino-PI-Compatible-Open-Source/224127314778

Claw opens to 3". Seller warns it's PVC, not aluminum. Appears to have a simple DC motor & leadscrew. Nice looking IMO, I'll probably get one, 22 available. $12.72 for 3+ units!

$30 at https://www.studica.com/us/en/Makeblock/robot-gripper-black/86502.html, which has better pictures.

    $129 Gripper. Buy aluminum artwork instead. This Gripper can deposit the object exactly where it found it, when combined with the Feedback 360 servos on an ActivityBot 360! 200 sets coming into inventory next week, too!

    An investment in Parallax is an investment in one's self. Hobby time is precious, too!
