we had a claw mechanism that had circular claws but didnt work b/c it was out side the 80in

we have one idea, but its a last resort kind of idea

we pretty much ran out of ideas, and the idea we do like, its too late for them
if anyone out there has any suggestions or tips on what to build, or anything
WE NEED HELP!!

Can you post a picture or drawing? Don't panic because everyone here will help you guys/gals out.

Is the pivot point of your arm over the center of your robot or over one of the ends?...

If we see it we can help... Are you using pneumatics on your robot already?

We need to see how your robot is set up...
Dimensions and locations for your pivoting arm... How high?
What motors so we know what you can lift... ?? How is it geared...

Hope to see more!!!
I think we would all like to help...
