That was my original plan, but I ended up just editing them separately. At some point, I might add another one for &quot;Using Tools to Examine a URDF Model&quot; (check_urdf and urdf_to_graphviz), possibly with some error messages. The other one that might be useful is &quot;Using a URDF in Code&quot; which covers the stuff from <div>

This is really great, awesome job! You closed a large gap in the URDF<br>
tutorials. Do you intend to absorb/replace the first two tutorials in<br>
&quot;1. Learning URDF&quot;?  They are similar in scope, but cover different<br>
parts of building a URDF.  What are your thoughts and future plans for<br>
these tutorials?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
