Found some Pix
Hey , here are some pix of a design we had to put together. It was supposed to be put into some wood thing by one side, and on the other, we were to put weight to see how much it holds. We could use 80 letter pages, and 120 ml of some glue. it had to resist at least 5 kilos(11 lbs) and be at least 30 cm long no including the 15 cm that is to be stuck in the wood thing. So what happened with our design was that it wouldn't fit into the wood thing, 'cause it was half cm wider. So, after some long show trying to put it in, half of it got broken, and still, we had to test it, and all we wanted for it was to hold the 5 damn kilos. Anyways, I don't know how, it hold 22 kilos. God, if it just wouldn't have got broken, I bet it would have hold 30+ kilos. We got the 2nd best grade, 'cause some guys had one that was a little bit longer. check it out. In one picture (the one just showing the design) you can clearly see how it was disfigured while I was trying to fit it to the hole in the wood. That thing hold 22 kilos in one end (torque). that is almost 50 lbs for you yankees.
