Don't remind me...... I spent 4 - 5 hrs trying to get my EAOT (the three
fingered one) to work, using a differential.... why is it that the new dif's
don't mesh with a 24 tooh crown gear... they mesh.. .but the center of the
crown gear hits the differential.

I saw somewhere someone chopped the annoying centre protrusion off a crown
wheel to get this to work - can't remember where off-hand. I prefer the old
diffs anyway 8?)

That's a great idea! Think I'll try that (tho I have 2 old diffs and 6 new
ones...)

But for this 'bot competition, no modified bricks at all :(  (rules and all
that)

Tho if it's this situation, I don't know why we can't bend the rules but
that ain't up to me to say...  I like the beginnings of Jeffs gripper
mechanism and would love to see it working in its entirety.

That's my 2 cents anyway.
