Well, I figured I would join in the fun. So I grabbed a micromotor and set

The best feature of this walker is its stability, which allows it to carry
its own battery pack!

(...) That's really cool, congrats on a great job. I've actually found a way that you could make it a little smaller. I'll make an LCAD file and E-mail it to you. It looks a little interesting, but it should work. :) -jrl (21 years ago, 5-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic)
