Don't do it! Or if you do, make it look like you didn't! Here's pnuematic humanoid hand, albeit at 1:1 scale. Might be able to scale it down, though. (URL) you have to make a pincher, add extra fingers, even if just for looks. (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Heh...I do agree about the name myself (not to mention it doensn't fit the model). It was a suggestion from a friend, and I was such a rush to post the pics. The name shall be changed...any suggestions? I'm definitely up for those =) (22 years ago, 12-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Great advice from the DR.!!!! You see through to the quandry. A purely mechanical claw hand would detract from the form I am attempting to create. And while a mildly disguised claw hand would ...ehhh be ok, I'll have to settle on something. The (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Folks, I'm in a bit of a quandry. Traditionally I don't like "Claw Hands" meaning the kind you see on a Submersable Sub or better know as Pinchers or Grabers.
