now some folks might remember I've been working on a cyborg costume.

I never got the head right, and I wasn't happy with the body armor so I'm starting over with those

but first I'm gonna rebuild my robot hand

my original is this

it works greatt but the wood clamps are heavey and it could hurt some one.

I'm building a new one using Cloroplast for claws, light weight and pretty durable I'm thinking of going with a three finger design similer to an Ork power claw.

I'm taking the basic design and making it a little less Orky to fit the costume

my thoughts are should I use a scratch built manual hydraulic control for the claw *wouldn't be too bad I'd just need the right sized syringes* or should I go with springs pulling the claw open like in my clamps

springs would be cheaper, and easier but the hydraulics would be smoother and so damn cool
