How did the hanging mechanism on the 2010 bot spring up?

The hook was held to the arms with velcro and tied to the winch with a strap. The arm, driven by torsional springs, was also held to the winch with a short cord. The first bit of motion by the winch let the arm loose which delivered the hook and the winch pulled the hook in.

Lot's of continuity between your 7 robots ! Keep up the great work

I'm not sure. For the final version, I started it and went off to do some errands. I'm guessing around 2 hours.

I did try a couple at higher resolutions (9000 x 3000 and 8100 x 2700) but those both stalled out. Must be some internal limit in Creo. The version I posted was rendered at 7200 x 2400.
