I was in a rush getting ready for BrickFest. I changed over my radial
compressor from yellow to red (SSClagorpion's official color). In the process I
accidentally cut the hoses on four pumps. I've changed the outer bracing
structure so that this does not happen. I also modified the hexagonal structure
to make it stronger (the technic cam's were the weak link).

I spent a few days at my brother's in Boston, so I just got back from Brickfest.
It was a few days ride home, so I had time to brainstorm about SCClagorpion. I
also stopped by at Eric's house to see his LEGO home life. It was great!
