(...) I built the Killough platform for the March SMART meeting mini-challenge. (SMART is the Seattle Mindstorms and Robotic Techies group.)

Looks like a form of the Killough platform on Leo Dorst's site. The rods appear to provide a 'shell' to keep the blue base from getting stuck in the v area. There are movies of the motion on Doug Carlson's site. I do not have any links handy, but (...) (24 years ago, 1-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Scott, I see this set frequently on eBay. There are six there now. Just search for "8880". I got two that way. It's a great set, though I feel that the suspension and joints to transmit driving power to the wheels are rather inflexible. Most of the (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)
