And a first test of 4-bar linkages, one of the most requested items for me to reintroduce from Gearotic 1.0

More goofing around using motors

using a "Gearotic 1" eccentric gear and then adding motors to drive them in action,  just me playing.

Hi Art

My wife &I have been in FL for the last couple of weeks helping my daughter and son-in-law with their newborn daughter (1mon. old).

I won't get back to CT for another couple of weeks, so I'll wait patiently for the updates.

Hi Bill:

Probably 2-3 weeks till first release of the kinematics module. SO you have lots of time before
its out and we can begin to see just how usefull such a thing is. , Im trying to make it as accurate
as I can given the type of thing we'll need it to do.

Looks like I'll have to start exploring the newer versions of Gearotics when I get back home  from FL. Looking at the videos has given me a few ideas of what mechanisms I'd like to stimulate.
