I also have a background in mechanical engineering so I'm not completely clueless but this project is a first for me. My inspiration was watching George Hotz programming videos (hours long) which I really enjoy and thought there should be a hardware equivalent

Genuine question, how do you juggle doing something like plus building your own company (I can see you're the founder of Double Bot)? Have subscribed, I quite like content like this. Good luck.

#8Followed and subbed. Good luck. 3d is a hobby of mine. sE by trade. I love to watch projects from zero evolve back to full circle. Thank you for sharing.

Nah, this is a common mistake people make. "I can't start X until I have every social media account, a website, an LLC, plenty of content, etc". Just make a thing and start somewhere.
