Here they are:
The 5 pieces version looks really disproportionate:

The 6 pieces is nicer and "walks" well:

Great!
The six piece design is nicer all around, but I guess if someone wants the
design with one less piece, the fiver is kind of neat in its own way. This
is actually less than an inch tall! I guess that probably classifies it as
the shortest walker (or at least stomper) made from Legos so far, so I think
the name Shorty fits :) Thanks for testing the designs for me, and also the
pictures are very nice :)

No, it was not included in count. Actually,
your mini7_01 has the same part count as monopod6.

What did you use to secure triangle on the crankshaft ?

Actually I didn't create the bent part in
http://www.philohome.com/misc/mini05bent.ldr as an individual part, it is
only a bunch of primitives.
Here is the flex axle as part (symmetrical):
http://www.philohome.com/misc/bentflex16x5.dat
and the modified cad file:
http://www.philohome.com/misc/mini05bent-part.ldr
You can place the part in your parts directory (not very wise as it adds
junk there), leave it in the same folder as the main file or better yet
create a .mpd with both files.

Oh yes, it's a Technic Axle Towball !

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hi philo
sorry i forgot to send PM folder
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=39648
as you can see i used axle pin with tow ball
because the krankshaft is "reversed"
it saves one piece :)

In your "readme" file
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/pixsrv/robots/mini7/info.txt, please give
credit to James Loewen, this is his design MUCH more than mine !!!

From MLcad help file:
"Inserting a sub-model as a part
In the "Available Parts" pane and in the "Part preview" pane there is a
section called document. In this section all sub-models are displayed. Drag
the sub-model from one of this panes into the active model."
Here is the modified .mpd:
