Abstract A bending neck comprising a plurality of pivotally connected hollow links is formed by machining a tube to form individual, pivotally connected links. A second tube may be located inside the first tube and simultaneously machined with the first tube. Grooves are formed on opposite sides of the outer surface of the second tube to provide a passageway for control cables which control the articulation of the links. In a second implementation indentations are formed in the side of the single tube to form ring-like projections into the inner lumen of each link, through which the control cables may pass. Un col flexible comprenant une pluralité de maillons creux reliés pour un pivotement est formé en usinant un tube pour former des maillons individuels reliés pour un pivotement. Un second tube peut être placé à l'intérieur du premier tube et usiné en même temps que le premier tube. Des gorges sont formées sur des côtés opposés de la surface extérieure du second tube de sorte à former des voies de passage pour des câbles de commande qui commandent l'articulation des maillons. Dans un seconde mode de réalisation, des indentations sont formées dans le côté du tube unique pour former des saillies en forme d'anneau dans la lumière intérieure de chaque maillon, à travers lesquelles les câbles de commande peut passer.
