Thanks you, definitely an Option! - This one was commissioned, so it's up to someone else, but I have lots of "open joints" robot characters in my movie "An Unwound Clockwork" for exactly this reason. ;)
Super clever the feet hinge, I really liked the solution!! I am not using squares for rigging anymore, I use the same method you show but in round bar. A lot easier to machine and easier to find the hole than a square.
Thanks, good to know! :) ...Is the rotational rigidity with round bars good enough? I like the idea and preferred round connections on my own armatures in the past, but I had some issues with clamping them rigidly and also all my customers requested square attachments, so I adapted...
It's a wonderful mechanism! It's like the stem and wedge inside the headset/fork of a bike for adjusting the height and rotation of the handlebars. Does it need to be constructed with a square cross-section? If you could make it with circular tube, you could rig it on any angle and not need a mortiser for boring a square hole.
So detailed, I imagine not covering it. Just use as a robotic character as is. Beautiful

This is such a creative solution! I love it!
I am amazed on your level of detail and how you manage to learn new techniques and show them on every video
Thanks a lot! It's a pleasure for me too :3

Thanks! Yes, according to @edupuertasfruns comment it works with round bars too - I'll need to try that out sometime! :)
Fascinating
Very clever device.
Die Hände sind ja der Wahnsinn 😮❤
