My only lament is that it does not photograph well...I had the same problem
with the Cankerworm and to some degree Q.

Still it doesn't work as well as I would have liked, but like I repiled to
Jeff it does feel cool!...Click!

Now what was funny was your face when I handed her to you and said "here
carry it" You were like "what you talkin' 'bout Willis?" Then when I told
you to just lay it on your lap because it was too tall for the cab of the
truck. That whole thing was laughable! I didn't realize the tail were
stabbing you!...sorry :-(

Actually the idea of that pose came from you. I changed the way the arms
connected to the 40 tooth gear at the shoulder. Still the axles are bending
fairly badly. Also I reinforced the bottom arms' ball sockets with
corrigated tubing.

I didn't care much for the way the pic came out, but it looks cool IRL!
Hey speaking of decapitation, can you tell me what's wrong with this picture?
