Scissor joints in Grasshopper


I am trying to integrate my Grasshopper model with scissor type connections into SAP2000. How can I model a scissor joint in GH such that it will read the same in SAP 2000 (i.e. it will have the same degrees of freedom in SAP also.)?

I’m not sure any of these are relevant - some are very old:

This works. Uses Anemone to repeatedly ‘Mirror’ the first ‘X’. Set lengths (‘AL’, ‘BL’) and pivot points (‘AC’, ‘BC’) separately. ‘Scale’ affects both. ‘Open’ flexes the scissors.
