That is awesome! It's very complex and impressive to see. And then it moves!!!
Great creation, Kevin.

Thanks TJ!


Any chance for a Ldraw file of the beast? ;-)

Now that you've asked there is a much higher probability of an MPD for this
beast!  ;^)

Needless to say, phase two of this beast will be able to walk backwards, turn
and *much* more.  There is a very important reason why the body is hexagonal,
not rectangular..... besides the fact that it looks more ogranic this way.

hex363 is the most complicated pneumatic design I've ever created.

And light years beyond what us mere mortals can fumble together with pneumatics
:-)
