Why do I need this for the Hexapod?

OK, now that you understand, this thing is a stand that goes under the hexapod. It is useful to keep the hexapod off the ground while testing new programs, such as by using the MIT Scratch drag-and-drop programming system.

The stand has little pegs that fit perfectly in matching holes on the bottom of the hexapod. It just barely keeps the legs off the table.

By testing your programs initially using the stand, you don't run the risk of the robot scampering off the table if you coded it wrong!

This will also allow you to proudly display your robot in a standing position even when it's turned off and the legs are not under power, with no stress on the servo motors.

Printing

I recommend you turn on brims (or rafts if you prefer, but in my opinion brims are much easier to cleanly remove).
