I've been assembling a new robot this week, it's using a combination of Bioloid and SES parts.
The photo shows an assembly using SES tubing, SES HUB-08 parts, and the aluminum cubes from SES.
I had to enlarge the holes in the red Bioloid parts in order for them to connect to the cube.
The HUB-08 fits perfectly on the back of the Bioloid bracket.

I've been working on assembling a Biped for mech warfare for a little while now. I finally attached an ArbotiX
to it, and started doing pose and capture:
There aren't a lot of places to get M2 hardware these days. Your local hardware store likely won't carry
it (most don't even carry #2-56 screws, 4-40 being the smallest they stock). Luckily, your hobby store
probably has them. The 1/18th scale car craze is great for us robot builders: a number of the models use
M2 hardware. The picture to the right shows Reaver's feet attached, using M2x4mm screws from a hobby
shop.
Speaking of Reaver's feet, they look familiar, eh? Much of the SES stuff that doesnt specifically hold
servos, is compatible with Bioloid if you're creative. The Bioloid brackets hall have 5/8" x 5/8"
patterns, which align with many of the SES add-ons. Reaver is using a pair of BRAT feet, and I'm sure
everyone has noticed that Issy has SES tube-style legs.
