Re: Arm Designs

so i just came up with a most ingeneous idea to help solve the problem of stress on the robot arm if you use a jointed arm, springs, use something like a makeshift garagedoor spring and attatch it between, and im looking at my arm while im doing this, the wrist and the shoulderthat way the stress is limited on the arm, the only problem is gonna by the energy you get from it coming back, if you dont use a tremedously big spring then it should work.
