Since a Thing-a-Week was too often, it's time to try a thing-a-day! TAD Day 2 - http://thing-a-day.com/rivet-pivot-test TAD Day 3 - http://thing-a-day.com/rivet-pivot-test-2 http://thing-a-day.com/tag/IHeartRobotics
It would be useful for building robots to be able to cheaply and easily create a rotating connection between two 3D printed parts. This is an initial test using rivets. None of these tests produced a joint that rotated freely, but this might be useful for connection where friction is desirable such as pose-able stop motion figure.
