How to balance single tooth drum ?
The single most problem faced by Drum bot builders is BALANCING the drum as the geometry is asymmetric.
The only thing you have to keep in mind is that centre of mass should not be displaced from geometric COM. So that imbalance will not rise.
So here are few easy ways you can balance your drum :)
* First Way:
1. Make a CAD model of the part
2. Then simply click "Find Centre of Mass" button in order to find geometric centre of mass of the drum.
* Second Way :
1. Generally the shapes are such that you can easily find the centre of mass just by using pen and paper.
