<<snipp Stuff about the cool walker>>

I've completed a pneumatic biped based on the 8455 set.  There are quite a few
pieces I miss in that set, so it took a while for me to get some good
geometries.  I've gotten my first 8455 pneumatic biped working.  It takes very
long strides.  I'll upload pictures and movies soon.

This sounds interesting!

I think I've only started to scratch the surface of what can be done with the
set.  I do enjoy the challenge of living within a set, because it forces more
creative solutions to constrained problems.

I'm sure the set is in good, caring and creative hands

The 8455 set is just such a great resource.  It just needs more switches ;^)

Sounds like we'll see a "Fun projects with the 8455" on the bookshelves [1] soon
