Yeah, it shouldn't be there. I only spotted it after I took the photos...the
pain of the bley thing just isn't going to go away, is it?

The whole robot/insect/Lego combination is a fairly untapped vein. There's more
to discover here. I'm seriously thinking about making an army of cybernetic
bees.

Build good,


Pete
