Just remember to be really careful what applications you use it for. It is incredibly weak. Spinning an encoder as seen in picture is one of the really good uses for it.

Oh, you kids. Before high-strength chain, teams did use the low-strength chain. It was useful, but you had to design within its limits. High strength chain is easier to use, but requires less elegance. Now, about those 3-wire motors…

Nice post Dilion, I’m going to make sure all my roboteers have a copy of that for their notebooks.
