Thats a nice walker. Great job, now I want to place a brickshelf order
so i can get more 7L axles. :)
May I ask why you went with a longer axle at the "front" of the leg? As

Also, great idea on the IR motors for the walker. I wanted to try that
as well, when Janey first suggested it to me, but alas, I am short on
the new power function motors. :)
