Nicely done, Trevor! I really like the fusion of older ideas (hands, Colin's legs) with the new ones (Kaukau Canopy). It just has a very nice flow to it.

I'm not usually one to reply to my own messages, but this debut has been delayed to an unfortunate accident involving tight hip joins and gravity. Follow-up will be in 2-3 weeks. -Dave (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
