I've got a design problem that I'm having a hard time working around - normally
I'd just drop the design, but this one has such great possibilities I'd hate to
have to do that.
I'm building an articulated 3-claw foot, based off of 1x4/2x2 hinge plates as a
center-point, arranged so:
||
//\\
The proportions of ascii art don't quite make it clear, but basically, each
hinge is at a 120 degree angle, and placed into a triangular formation. This
lets me do some really neat things, but I can't seem to figure out a way to
connect anything to the "top" of the triangle.
No matter how I manoever things around, I can only get things lined up with 1/3
of the triangle at a time.
Does anyone have a solution for me?
