I am currently working on a eight legged walker that may end up being
ssclagorpion, but who knows. It is using a new central timing circuit that
should allow it to complete the walking sequence in four piston transitions.
I had been in a DA for quite a while, but got myself restarted using LPub and
LSynth.
I've been building in prep for BF for many weeks.
