(...) Hmm interesting. I only have one clutch gear (the one that came with RIS 1.5), and it is too *loose* to really be at all functional. I've also read that the clutch force tends to drop in them the more they are used. (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Oh , right , Newtons , I was saying Nano centameters! thanks....I guess you need a fair amount of gearing and distance to use these gears effectivly along with opposing resistance, I love the way it works in the hand I developed, infact in included (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

How about a water-based lubricant instead of petroleum-based? If it's safe for latex...why not ABS? :) Use it sparingly and only as a last resort. Personally, I doubt I would use graphite. Graphite would be a little too messy for me. -Troy (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)
