No, not yet. But thanks for the praise! :-)

Ah, simple arithmetic and rigging. Give the robot a position for the right
hand, and there it'll be, connected from the shoulder with a tube. A few
more variables to properly adjust the tube, but that's basically it. A
couple of scripts to perform the transformations... It's something you pick
up on once you start taking classes about local and global space and such...

Me too! :-) I'm just too swamped with other work and problems to properly
focus on this and am quite satisfied that I even managed to get this short
clip out despite everything else...

Regards,
Tim
