Greetings the names Sam and this is my first post!
This model is a successful representation of the mechanical workings of a human elbow. i made it in the second trimester for DESN 111 project 2. The brief stated that I had to clearly communicate the trace movements of the chosen joint. I eventually chose steel as the material I was to use, its strong, rugged, easy for me to work with and having been in steel construction for the last 3 years I felt comfortable working with it. I feel it was very successfull in the way it portrayed and mapped the various movements of the elbow. It was also success full in the fact that it put up some resistance that grew as you used it more making it stiff and harder to move, much like your own elbow if you where to over use it. I chose to talk about it because I had a lot of fun making it (fire is fun and so is hitting things with hammers), and it took quite awhile to put together.

elbows are much hotter than knees
elbows bent to da floor
Nice project, I like the use of metal and the model looks like it would be fun to use. I did the same joint in my project. check it out!
real cool work!!! its unique and strong...
