Here's the Ronin mecha that's been sitting on my site for some time. I'd recommend getting the balljoint.dat file from my site so you can see exactly how the hips go together. Hopefully, this works. It didn't when I tried to post my Kodiak mecha. (...) (25 years ago, 19-Feb-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
