joints created by ball joints.  (Note: I have not tried this so I do not
know if it will work at all.) Anyway, I believe that if you took a
technic flex hose and shoved it through you mech's leg at point "A1" (see
super corny diagram below) and bent it down and thrust it through the
waist at point "B" and then bent it back upward and pulled it through the
other leg at point "A2" you could strenghthen the hip joints by quite a
lot.  the whole philosophy that I have is that if you have something else
that unversely bends and is tougher or as tough as (not as willing to
bend) the ball joints then you could strengthen them quite a bit. Once
again I have no idea if this will work or not, I have not tried it.
Though, I would appreciate it if all of you would give me some feedback
on this idea and maybe even try it too!

Thanx!

And, of course,

May the Brick be with you!
