Thanks, Todd.

Actually, I used friction pins at the shoulder and hip. I like the click-hinges
because they allow me to make incremental poses, so I usually use
them at joints that don't require more than 90 degrees of movement.

I suppose I could have sculpted the front end to look "cooler" but I wanted
the lowering cockpit mechanism... sometimes I design a MOC around a
gimmick :^)

Mark, the Juggernaut is just too sweeeeet!!! It appears that all its joints
are done with SWs hinges instead of the discontinued high-friction pins • (I
hate those things). I've been considering building a realy large • anthropoid
mech that way, even though I'm so partial to Throwbot limbs. By the way, • cool
elevating cockpit!
