Hi Experts,

I'm quite new to Max.
I do have quite a lot of experience in other 3d apps.
Can anybody advice me on how to animate this:

The middle thing just rotates making the squares going up and down.
Can't find any tutorials for this..
Thanks

Seems like this could be done with just a few simple pivot structures.

Ok.
The 5 lines are connected to the middle rotating middle line.
That's not the problem.
I need to figure out how to make the squares 'follow' the other end of the 5 lines, Only moving up and down.
