Lego 8043 grabbing arm mod

[arjanofski]

I've created a simple modification for the excavators arm.

It's a hand to grab and turn things. I've also created some instructions.

It's very simple, but very effective.

Yeah i'm working on a tank. I created some big ammo firing mechanisms, but it will take some time till the tank is finished.

Here is a teaser if you're interested:

Hi. Your creation is very useful. I have the 8043 (my first lego technic) and I really want to build a claw that can turn, someone know the list of parts (with code number) to build this claw. Thanks to all.
