Hey Jon, • Snip
Oooh, I like them. I like the look of the forearms.

I was wondering, I guess you rely on the sole rotaional (non-friction) of the
4x4 turntable in the wait pivot. Had you considered using one of those micro
motor mounts (with rubber insert) along with a 3L axle w/stud (and a 2x2 round
plate) to create a measure of friction in that joint? Give it a try.
Though you will have to raise the height around that joint to incorporate the
components. Just an idea.

I'm not sure what pieces you're talking about, Eric. Could you post some pics
for me?

Nice! Same thoughts as above. I like seeing what you make!

and finally, a shot I couldn't resist taking!
