Hey Ron,

Those were some neat solutions you posted. Some of mine were pretty ugly too.

How did you solve the tube?

This is a wicked sweet physics game.
Kerri and I had a blast with it. The graphics are excellent and it's got a lot of geek humor going on. You need quite a bit of machine to play it, so make sure to check specs.

Ah HAh!!!
There's a demo right here. Load it up and check it out.

I tried several ways - one was like an inverted "V" with a center counter weight that would start to work but then lose traction, tumbled and fall down. Took awhile on this final solution getting the angle just right and the length of the stick in the middle. Right side has to be lower than the left to force it tight against the wall.
