Go to Post I trust my life to a 3650 pound rolling chunk of metal every day that, if some silicon failed in just the right (wrong?) way, would splat me pretty quickly, but I have faith in engineering. On the other hand, it doesn't turn me upside down. - DonRotolo [more]

Careful it doesn't do that in a match - could be costly!

Re: pic: 1678's new can grabbing strategy

At least now you know the maximum level at which you need to limit the impact velocity of the burgler.

Time to stop beating that dead horse.

No musicians were harmed in the making of this grabber. I hope.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

Technically this is one of few mechanisms that actually perform burglary (aka breaking and entering).
