That's close. I tried using it on one robot, I can't quite remember why I gave
up on it. Two things I can see at this time, though, are that it only has one
technic hole. It'd be much more useful with two or three that you could connect
to. And second that it's not quite as thick as a rounded beam on the 'lifting'
part.
It looks very nice, though. Thanks for reminding me to look at it again.
