Kresty's Other D-O - Lego of course
#2
Lara was surprised with Heavy Metal in the mail.  (W - Tungsten).

Well, it occurred to me that with Lego my counterbalance problems are going to be really, really tough.  Like maybe worse than lead tough.  So I found some Tungsten to play with.

Some of you are probably more experienced, but I haven't had much cause to play with anything this dense before.  Messes with your head a little to pick it up.

Playing with possible weights for counterbalances

I got a 1" cube, 1.5" cube and some small counterweights.  The cubes are about a kilo and a little over 5 lbs respectively.  All together it's almost 10lbs of stuff.

I wasn't sure what sizes we'd need, and we'll need something for BB-8 as well if we ever get that behaving...
