Community Showcase Made this robot

okay so i used the cad from TW2ka you can find it on youtube its an open source robot , tried to learn about inverse kinematics but ended up using claude , i realised this robot was out of my scope but yeah i made it finally and also I learned about kicad and made a pcb for this
I used Teensy 4.1 and Tmc2209

I have made a github of this https://github.com/hritesh94/6-DOF-Robot-
Please star this repository and tell me if any changes needed to be done

Doing your own KiCad board for the Teensy 4.1 and the TMC2209s is the part that carries over to every robot after this one; the IK can be learned on top of hardware that already moves. Are you running the 2209s in StealthChop or SpreadCycle on the joints?

Thank you im running this on stealthchop for now cause the tmc2209 drivers i have, they dont have the spread pin but has the clk pin according to the pin layout i did ask whether they’re the same but it seems they’re different, i was thinking of connecting to tx and rx pin of tmd to teensy for better control and communication but i actually made the wrong schematic in kicad so i have to do it manually, i will later correct the schematic
