The only pose a double won't give you is "cross" articulation: it wouldn't be able to hold a two handed sword, for example. At least not the way I'm (...)

To answer both of the connection questions: 1.

Here's my next entry for the design contest. It's a category 8 mobile rocket launcher, based loosely on the 6950 mobile rocket launcher.

Hi Bryce, I see you're using double throwbot limbs at the shoulders. Does that work well? How much weight does it support? Looking forward to seeing more. ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hi Jay, Very nice work... though I thought the Z-95 had triple cannons on the wingtips? Or is this another case of "multiple books with different info"? I really like the laser cannons on the X-Wing.

(...) idea! Couldn't you just poke the tails of the scorpions through the hole in the chain end stud? That way you wouldn't have to use the extra clip element to connect the chain. Or perhaps it can't be done? Fredrik (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.build, lugnet.general)
