Hi Bryce,

I see you're using double throwbot limbs at the shoulders. Does that work
well?
Yes they work well. The double gives about the same mobility of the single
with more support. The only pose a double won't give you is "cross"
articulation: it wouldn't be able to hold a two handed sword, for example.
At least not the way I'm using them.
How much weight does it support?
The arm supports itself easily at 4x3x10 long. Pistol type weapons and
things giving vertical weight (like swords) are also okay. It cannot support
rifles and things requiring a straight arm very well.
Later,
Bryce

Hi Bryce, I see you're using double throwbot limbs at the shoulders. Does that work well? How much weight does it support? Looking forward to seeing more. ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
