The images were produced with LDLITE and POV-Ray.  I tried to avoid
using unofficial LDraw parts, but there is one: The friction pin with
towball.  I'll post the model to the appropriate dat group when it gets
official.

Go to

and click on "Articulated Rig" in the "What's new?" section to the
left.

Very nice model.  And clever, to boot.  I like the melding of the renderings
and the LDlite output.  (might have to borrow that idea).
And the instruction page looks great.  The addition of the background really
adds to the quality.
Great model, great presentation.  Well done.

I am assuming that "Everything between two 6x8 plates" refers to fitting the
width and height to those requirements, but not the length?

In the better late than never department. Your prize for the first competition is in my basement. At last. I finally did the pitsco order I needed to and I have 3 packages of chain links for you. Just have to send them. (26 years ago, 19-May-99, to lugnet.build, lugnet.cad)
