Thanks for the quick reply Chris!
Here's what I've got so far, I haven't moved on with it, since I keep running into this problem. I can attach the hinge to the platform, I then group the two wheels with the hinge. I can then attach the two ball joints to the wheels...then my problem starts. When I try to get the two "poles" attached to the ball joints, the wheels and hinge become unglued from the platform. No approach I've attempted has yet to work. Greatly appreciate the help on this!
Hi! New to these forums. I recently discovered sketchyphysics and while I've gotten simple things to work like a wheeled car or a piston, I'm having trouble figuring out how to connect more complicated systems. While I can attach a wheel to a platform using a hinge, when i try and attach a bar to the wheel using a ball joint, it causes the hinge to detach from the platform! Etc. etc. etc...Is there a heiarchy that I'm not understanding to how joints are attached to components, and components are grouped together? Can anyone please explain this to me.
Much appreciation, Forcemaster2000
