Euklides file is [<http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Philo/Misc/tj2.euk here>].

You can animate the leg by moving the handle. Play with different geometries by
changing segment lengths on the right.

The black curve shows the path of the tip of the leg. A broken or strange curve
indicates impossible geometries.

Play well,

I wanted to say thank you for your kind words; I also should add that I
routinely use your page as a guide when thinking about lego motors.

As to the simulation. It is simply fantastic. I played with it for a
short while, and all I can say, is that it sure would have been helpful
to me to have that before I used my "trial and error" to work on the
prototype leg.
