Vent away, Jacob!
Want proof that it happens to other people? Witness this BricksWest 2002
picture <http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=130320>- I had just
turned my back after adjusting my mecha so it would be ready to show off
during day two of the mecha sessions. I heard a 'pop' and down it
went....I've still bever found the ball joint that gave way, but I'd be
willing to bet it was on the other side of the room. What area of the model
did this happen? The left hip, of course. Too much stress in one area, I
guess. Live and learn...that mecha is still a thorn in my side as it's just
a wee bit too heavy to stand on it's own. I'll fix that eventually....
