(...) Hey! I use Linux every day and I don't use X as a GUI. And I program 8 hours a day all within vi. I will admit that I may not be the typical mindstorms programmer. In the end it really comes down to what folks are most comfortable with. In my (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(lugnet ate my first reply, so here is a repost) I'm trying to figure this out... The ship comes in, unloads some containers, they are hoisted by a crazy crane into a pit. This pit is adjacent to another pit containing an unruly tentacled monster (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Brian missed a method that worked for me. I put a 14 long lift arm on an RC Buggy motor and created a feed mechanism to put in one ball at a time. The resulting distance was about 25-30 feet. Ultimately, Steve threatened me with the addition (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)

Zac, What can I say, This is just a well executed mecha. I love the amount of detail in such a small package. It kinda reminds me of a Cicada from Battletech, that is, until you added the AA guns. :) Keep on building! Jon (20 years ago, 26-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Ahhh OK that makes sense ;) White I could have done, except I don't have enough 1x1 round bricks in white. Red and blue are definite possibilities though - blue would have probably worked nice on the model. I see your point though - black was (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

In other words, replace the black with a brighter colour. I think white would work well, or even a (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Thanks Marco. I suppose that the moral of the story is never skimp on joints - in the long run making sacrifices for more sturdier joints is going to make the model more dynamic and thus better. And yeah I'm very happy with it's posability! (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Thanks Mark, As a programmer I feel quite embarraced that I didn't do the ftx properly! At least I got the text links right! In my defence, it seems a really wierd 'language'.
