(...) You realize, of course, there is a very nice way to stiffen those joints significantly in both axes. I'll post it in a couple of weeks, but the technique is very similar to the plate hinge stiffening technique. Personally, on my wish list is a (...)

To some extent I believe in the minds of TLC, they already are through Bionicle and some of (...) (22 years ago, 11-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.lego.direct)

Interesting solution! I had tried the long pins and found that the end I wanted to stay stayed for the most part...but it wasn't reliable. Increasing the friction of one end is a novel idea indeed. I may just use it in the end. The option of making (...) (22 years ago, 9-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Luke, I'm stummped too! Although I'm just not sure at what your trying to accomplish. Maybe these two pix can help. I use a Cam Mechanism to achive linear motion.
