this is what i started with
endoarm001.jpg


i used a plastic tube from a Mighty Putty container , you can also find these tubes at Home Depot or Lowes in the section with the glue and woodfiller , any clear tube of this size will work

tore apart the arm carefully and i used a rubber wheel from a Dremel Sanding Bit as the elbow

i saved the articulated existing elbow piece from the endo arm ( for the ring between the forearm and the elbow (cut the nub off later)

if u take apart this then u end up with a rubber wheel ( perfect for the elbow) also later on i used the actual bit and screw that holds the wheel on . to secure the arm to the base

freshly painted ( this is the closest i had to chrome)

so i used the bottom of the plastic container and screwed the bit together through it .drilled a hole in the rubber wheel , glued to the arm
