This has proved hard to explain in the past but here goes.

OK. In the past couple of weeks I have been learning how to make 3d shapes appear and rotate or translate about an axis on the computer screen. Thats done and dusted. But now my next big thing is getting 2 or more 3d objects that are connected, move independantly but affect each other.

OK, that dont make much sense probably so heres a bit of backgound. Ultimately I am making a robotic arm simulation for a college project in VB. Nothing fancy, just a 3D wireframe robotic arm. So as mentioned above I can make 3D objects on the screen, I just dont know where to start as far as connecting them together to move and rotate is concerned.

Urgh. Please, someone out there's gotta understand what I mean.
