 Hank,Thanks
 for the info. I think I can just rearrange the weight and be
 fine. I am working on quite the manipulator arms and tooling
 package. Should be cool!Thanks,Scott

 Scott,
 I have played around with buoyant arm ideas and experimented
 a bit.  The first problem is lack of space for the
 foam.  You get very little benefit. The next option is
 to make hollow members and cap them.  You get more bang
 for your buck that way.  The last option that would
 help is buoyant members, like plastic.  Anyways, you
 likely don't even need to worry about it with your K350
 because the arms are front mounted and you can just
 rearrange your weight.

  I am
  working on the manipulator arm for Trustworthy. I can
  compensate the CG by removing weights in the front, but
  unsure if it will be enough. Does anyone ever compensate
 the
  weight of a manipulator arm by putting foam in the
  arm?Thanks,Scott Waters
