High frequency motor/gear noise sucks to dampen. Wow.
So I've decided I'm going to go big on this, physically. Nobody really cares if their sex robot is a little bit bigger right? It'll still fit on an Ender 3 print bed (220x220) so the vast majority should be able to print it. I can probably make a split version later.
The first im...

This is basically moving each OSR2 servo 10mm inwards, sticking a 25t servo hub on the arm, and extending the arm inside the robot a little. Add baffling around the servo and I'm hoping this shows some decent results in sound dampening. May need to go to something with an internal air gap, but that's a problem for tomorrow me.

Currently working on a OSR2 case replacement with a focus on sound reduction. I used a very precise tool (silicon...

I'm making an OSR2+ again, here's some lightly tweaked and upgraded servo arms.
They are slightly stronger and have more quality of life features, but are otherwise identical to the stock parts. No need to upgrade if yours work well for you.
Added access to the horn screws, added internal geometry that adds strength in the most neede...

Required: 350mm+ (14 inches+) of 4mm outer diameter PTFE tubing.
Commonly used with 3d printers, called bowden tube. You probably shouldn't cut your printer's bowden tube for this.
