Not another chicken walker. Sheesh, talk about old hat. ;)
|
Hehe, temped to make a joke here but thinking that might not be taken the right
way.
| |
In all seriousness, that hip joint is a real eye opener. Thanks.
You only have the two axes of rotation in the ankles, yes?
|
Yep, only two on the ankle, but it gives all the mobility I need.

And is the thigh
rotation also worm geared?
|
That place where the bricks meet in the middle of the thigh? No that isn’t
geared. That is actually serves two purposes, 1)it turns the brick so I can get
the correct orientation for the knee and 2)it’s a quck disconnect point for the
leg, so that the MOC can be worked on and transported more easily. (Like Brian
mentions). Actually the body is currently sitting on a baseplate where the
thighs are hard mounted for ease of work.
Thanks Allister
