Two Words...

Latex Tubing!

The stuff is great. It is legal. AND you get about 4-7lbs of force PER WRAP.

Need 500lbs of force in an extension spring... ...no troubles, it is just 100 wraps!

The Chief Delphi Robots would be lesser machines without this reliable, remarkable, noble and incredibly useful material.

I better stop... ...I'm getting all misty ;-)
