Placing and connecting fingers to integrate the mechanical and electronics

Step 4: Placing and connecting fingers

Using the screws on the finger bases, attach the finger using the pegboard. The fingers can be placed anywhere on the board. Using a nut on the underside of the pegboard to adhere the screw, fasten the finger and base tightly into place. Insert eye screws within the finger configuration to channel the string back to the motor pulley.

When adding another finger do the same for the base screw and eye screw, making sure to secure both with nuts on the underside of the pegboard. Tie the threads of all fingers to the thread coming from pulley, making sure to keep this connection tight.
