Subject: [alt-beam] Lego Motors and Flagella
As an observation, if you bore a hole through the little pully attachment on
the end of the lego micromotors and then insert the surgical tubing wire
that solarbotics sells, I find you can make some fairly nice looking Turbot
arms. Again I'm worried about Torque considerations, but if you look at the
latest turbot pics at solartbotics, while I wonder how effective the lego
motors are at the larger size, at the smaller scale the motors would do
wonders.
