The fact that he doesn't connect the lego bricks kills me.

[@Mark73]

I don't think you could get enough force with those things to snap the legos together.

[@warpspeedscp]

@@Mark73 that's exactly why this is excruciating

[@johnhoyle6390]

Developable Mechanisms, incredible. All the times id' felt that developments were an anachronism in design, , now they've found new life into that obscure discipline.

[@tristanboyle4450]

what developments do you mean?

[@Below-Zero.]

Yes.

[@roshansuryawanshi8658]

How to calculate dof of this mechanisms?

[@TreeLuvBurdpu]

There's no sound

[@lahavsvorai276]

This concept is brilliant!!!

[@elijahsvrbinge7166]

No

[@tristanboyle4450]

serendipity?
