Kevin! I am astounded by your recent creations. I intently tried to figure out
how you made these inchworms.

The gates that you are so well known for are so elegant yet complex.

The work you have done is a marvel to see! So you were able to get a 1 switch to
1 piston arrangement? Philo came up with that? Amazing.

Drool drool all those clear Cylinders!

I was wondering, would you consider locking the axle at the bottom of the
cylinder base with a 3L technic plate and then add those technic tear drop parts
to act as feet or toes. I really think those parts need to be affixed to the
bottoms of the cylinders.

Could you give that a try and let us know how it works out? They would be better
than the cylinder base acting as a 'foot'.

Just a thought.

Again great work!
