There are six legs that can each rotate out a full 180 degrees. Each lower leg swings along a click hinge. I picture it being some sort of small troop support mecha that is operated by remote. It won't be completely finshed until I can replace the (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Very interesting! One of my co-workers is a math geek - the next time I see him I'll ask him about this problem. I think it falls under the category of math known as combinational topology.

|
Hi everybody! I was idly flipping through my copy of The Ultimate LEGO book the other day and I noticed a little bit of trivia on page 8. It says that two 2x4 bricks can be combined in 24 ways, three bricks: 1060 ways, and six bricks: 102,981,500 (...) (24 years ago, 24-Mar-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

Whoa. Not entirely correct. You can do accurate positioning with pneumatics, it's just harder to do than with hydraulics, because you have to take air compressiblity and seal "stiction" into account if you want to hit an arbitrary position that's (...)
