3d Studio Max Rigging Scissor Mechanism using Matrices to animate complex machinery
Budget: $30 – $250 AUD
This is for 3d Studio Max 2015 only. is to add complex scissor rigging to make machinery with a scissor fence between 2 moving towers. Some parts of the model have been completed, that is towers which are animated with wheels. These have Scissor fences between them which can stretch in and out as the towers move around. And also fold up. 3D images and some model components will be provided.
The Scissor mechanism is very similar to in this youtube tutorial:

If you can do this then it should be easy for you to do what i require.
I tried to do this tutorial but it just does not work for me.
Anyway I have attached images of the machinery with the moving towers and the stretching scissor fence between.
I also attach a 3ds model of the tower and wheels animated and a 3ds model of the whole thing folded up.
So the complete machinery will have 4 identical towers as I modelled and 4 scissor fences attached between them.
As you move the towers around and away from each other, the fence stretches out.
