Don't be that person who watches the movie before the book! Okay I lied, there's no movie, but read part one of this saga HERE anyways. :)
Hello again! Today was a problem solving adventure. The knee joint prototype worked nicely after printing, however there was absolutely NO FRICTION. How am I supposed to animate if the knees slide around like Bambi on ice?

I brainstormed for a bit and came up with a new plan. I bought some itsy bits teeny tiny nylon washers from Ace Hardware, redesigned my knee joints with a little gap for the washers, and printed them out again. With the friction from the nylon washers, the knee joint moved perfectly! It was still easy to animate but didn't slide around as it had before. SUCCESS!
