	Was able to get a pretty ~~optimal~~ setup (~~over~~ 7' and ~~60 degrees~~) from this which I have uploaded in resting position here: [[File:LifeTrac6.skp]] ~~with forearm cylinders attached~~ (if anyone would like the Solidworks assembly just let me know). The key factor here was moving the cylinders to the inside of the loader arms which I think is the only way to get max extension and compression without running into any mechanical stops (it helped to run down to the old shop and check out LifeTrac4). Used some of the custom parts from Lucas's as-built LifeTrac5 file.		Was able to get a pretty decent setup (7' and 45 degree bucket angle with max extension and compression) from this which I have uploaded in resting position here: [[File:LifeTrac6.skp]] (if anyone would like the Solidworks assembly just let me know).

	Finished moving all the groups associated with the loader arms up by 2' to get a higher maximum bucket height. Explored the add on warehouse to find a tool similar to a mate. SketchyPhysics offers joints but it turns out it isn't compatible with Make, the newest iteration of Sketchup. For now range of motion will have to be by drawing lots of triangles working with the rotation command but I will continue looking for an alternative.

SketchyPhysics offers joints but it turns out it isn't compatible with Make, the newest iteration of Sketchup. For now range of motion will have to be done oldschool: drawing lots of pen and paper triangles and working with the rotation command (but I will continue looking for an alternative).
