I will spare you the awful profanities that escaped my mouth when I saw this. But suffice to say that this is the nicest arm that I have ever seen.

I was expecting good things from 857, but nothing quite like this

Just a question... How much does that arm weigh and how much is that in comparison to the rest of the robot. I remember last year, our robot had an arm sort of similar to that, but we had to take it off because it was way too top heavy. Not trying to get down on you guys though, that is a very impressive piece of engineering.

As far as we allow it to rotate.
