RE: Scratch building a Tau Riptide. Really from scratch!
Great work! And I admire your patience as well.
Re magnets: I have made small joints using two buckyballs that almost touch, glued into the pivoting centre of a circular joint with two round flanges that fit together. It allows circular movement in one plane, the arm or leg can easily be removed and things don't break when you drop them, they just come apart.
Thanks , it doesnt feel like patience when you are having fun.
Yes one of the major advantages of magnets are that you get a little bit of poseability and the added advantage of them not breaking (as much) when dropped.
