 | | Inchworm 2 (neat and tidy)
|

I finally uploaded pictures of my second Inchworm. This is exactly the same geometry and circuitry as Inchworm ( (URL) ). It is just done with better color choices, and tidier pneumatic hoses. Inchworm walks by undulating its body. It has 7 segments (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.announce.moc)

I was just going to send this to like 2 people but I figure since we are all Honda lovers, I'd just post it here. (URL) love Honda too! Iain (but I'm geting a smart. OMG is the SiR hatch fast though??) PS - Stunt track is DA BOMB. (URL) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

I uploaded some pictures of PhD 2, that some of you saw at BrickFest 2004. PhD2 is a neat and tidy version of its predecessor Hex-363. PhD2 can adjust the sweep direction of each of its legs, allowing to walk any of six directions (forward, forward (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.announce.moc) !

(...) In case anyone watches (the new version of) Battlestar Galactica, think about Adama's attitude towards networking. Hah! Reality stranger than fiction... (21 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) All your stuff is great, but this is especially pleasing to the eye! The curved tan pieces that cover a 2x2 area right at the centre of your fountain, are they the standard 'well' pieces in tan? From some SW set you picked up for parts for (...)

Ross crawford was telling me that most people don't like reading messages that are just for one person- it is not proper netiquette. Sorry to everyone for forgetting that sometimes. I'll try to use peoples' email for that. (21 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Yeah, I *might* have gotten a little carried away with the colorless color scheme. Now I'm wondering if I have the parts to do the back in dark red, sort of a black widow scheme. I do recommend the cockpit part, it gives you a great sharp (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) I think most of my stuff winds up having a little "cute" content in it. I'd credit (blame?) the anime influence. BTW, I have to confess the wheels don't turn freely, so the model doesn't roll (they're wrapped around 1x1 cylinders). (21 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Yes, a true Shirow spider tank would never be without a pair of minigun claws. I'm glad I put in extra time on the nose-gun, though. You should have seen the inelegant chunk of crap I had as the first version. It didn't even pivot (...) (21 years ago, 30-Apr-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

I knew I had to use dark blay for the canopy and joints, I needed to use black for the wheel mountings in the lower legs, and I needed to use white for the half (...)

La domanda è tutt'altro che banale! Sono uscito dalla "Dark Age" da circa 1 anno e mezzo, grazie a mia moglie ed al set Mindstorms che mi ha regalato 2 natali fa....l'evoluzione è ancora costante...
