(...) Hi Mark, Now I know what to build next..... a four legged walker that lifts one leg at a time. On paper it looks like I can get one made for 1+2n pistons and 2+4n switches. This assumes that legs mechanically lock when weight bearing. I don't (...) (19 years ago, 13-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) hi, why do you wanne build a thing that lifts one leg a time?.... i did it but it dont have any advanges. it isn't much more stable. it isn't faster (my cat 343 was not to slow) but stil i don't see any inprovments. the only thing is that it (...) (19 years ago, 13-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic)
