I was thinking of friction as a simple on/off property: connections with friction only move during construction, whereas connections without are free to move under gravity or inertia or other forces during animation of the final model. Is this too (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.lcd)

(...) Welcome in my brain, Barney: I was writing about gravity and inertia in this very hour. The approach you describe may be usable, but as for myself, I'm talking in the LMPL proposal about a tensile strength instead. I see some difference. (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.lcd)

(...) I think it probably is. The situations I'm thinking about are: 1. axles in technic bricks, which fit your "no friction" model; 2. the light grey low-friction pins, which could also fit the "no friction" model (with regard rotation); 3. the (...)

(...) I agree. Although I called it friction, I didn't mean the true physical property. It seems to me that the difference between grey pins and black pins is structural in nature: they are different connectors from a builder's point of view. I (...) (23 years ago, 12-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.lcd)
