| | | Thanks Steve and Don! I tried out your ideas and also built a couple of others that are variations of your ideas. I think I'm getting close to what I need. thanks, TJ (23 years ago, 30-Nov-01, to lugnet.technic)

| | | | | The ideas are neat for joining beams like that,......but the pix on your Web-Site with the giant pully hook is killer!!!! Wow, I don't think it was there last time I visited. Thanks Eric www.mylegomaster.com (...) (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.technic)

But I do know what "axial strength" is ;-) There are two ways to load a member axially: tension and compression (i.e. pulling and squashing). I had been talking about axial tension, (...)
