That is awesome. Could you put a vid of it in action. I love the style
- it is functional, but equally stylish - the way you have arranged
the cabling makes it look really something. I can really imagine that
as a spider tank model looking rather fantastic.
Could you do a pneumatic logic diagram of it? There are so many
connections there - I am pretty bewildered after trying to follow what
went where - I imagine it is segmented, and with a couple of sections
- each leg is basically the same in relation to the previous leg (or
another leg depending on the gait set up).
Anyway - thoroughly amazed at it!
