...well, the smallest I can manage, anyway. Of course, I am hoping to see some
challenges to this claim! :)
Fully automatic - needs only an air supply. Uses two small cylinders and two
switches. Roughly 9x9x12 studs in size. I found the small cylinders quite
tricky to work with, and a few compromises were necessary to get it down to this
size. Nevertheless, it does work, just!
So - who can produce a smaller one...!?
cheers, Alexander

And it's an hexapod in this size!!!

Great job Alexander!
I have a biped that is close:

I guess I'd better get to work and make it smaller.

Indeed - one among many amazing creations. I noticed this one is also quite
minimal:

Eagerly awaiting the results!

Wow, brillant! I liked seeing the video and watching the switches work in
sequence. Very cool! WOULD MAKE A GREAT ADDITION TO THE SIDE BAR - HINT HINT!
