ankle Cylinders part 3....... the story continues

Trial and error......

Plastic Pipe a Lathe, grooving tool and someone who should know better!!! :-D

Grooving the plastic pipe didn't go too well at first, not least because it could only be held so tight before being crushed and distorted. After a few attempts though I managed to produce them to an exceptable standard. Although for the next one I will try another method!

R2-D2 plastic pipe

Next: Need to finish of the cut out for the leg, end caps and fixings for attaching to the leg.
