Hi. Would anyone happen to have one handy? I'm looking to get a width measurement of the two base pieces. Thanks in advance for any help!

The largest of the two sections is 189mm by 55mm
The smaller is 139mm by 55mm

Excellent. Thank you for your help!

These were used, amongst many other places, on the palms of the claws of the 2001: a Space Odyssey EVA pods.

The 1:1 scale I presume

Well, yes.

Well, yes.

Are you going all the way Neil and building a 1:1 EVA Pod or just a 1:1 arm?

Are you kidding? Where would I put a bunch of stuff like that? I live in the UK these days, you know!

However, knowing the physical dimensions of actual objects on the pod are invaluable for scaling purposes.

Well, it was worth asking...I wouldn't be surprised, if one day, you'd embark on such project
