The SES is still growing. I am making more “special function” brackets as we go. I have a couple major projects in the works, and hope to finish them up in the next few months. Once they are completed I have an idea I want to work on. It’s the utilization of an MXL timing pulley that can be used with the SES. This has me thinking of a 2DOF axis on the exact same plane. I saw it successfully implemented in a large blue biped a couple years ago, but I don’t remember the company that made it right this minute. So anyway the SES is no where near finished. 
Amen brother!
Been working with Robot-Dude on the side to get my order setup … I tell you one thing … Some big companies could take note of how this companies customer service functions … Jim is one stand up guy!!! The community forum alone is why I will be a Lynxmotion customer after today!!!
Thanks everyone 
I don’t quite get what you are saying… Do you have a picture?
@ EddieB : About the Joint with the AX-12, I’m pretty sure we could do it just wich 1 custom made brackets, putting two servo, one on top of the other. The first Would be connect to the foot (by the two ends) and the one on top would be to change the inclination of the foot. It could also go the other way (change top-botton functionality). Or you could also go in a different aproach using (again) the two servos on one bracket… I’m startin to look how I could make it the smallest possible with the Hitec servos.
Jim and his company has great customer service. LM is my favorite bot company and the .net is my favorite forum site!
I know what you are talking about, spending any amount over $1k on a product requires a little research. From my experience, you can’t go wrong with LM’s parts. The fit and finish is excellent, and your joints are supported by bearings so you don’t have to worry about wear and tear as you would with bushings.
If you’re going for a biped humanoid, go for the HSR5990TGs up front. It has a monitoring circuitry to prevent the FETs inside from blowing up, which is a common problem with 5995s and 5955s.
Good luck with your biped!
Finally found it buried on my file server. I love backups.
I see all the pulleys and belts between the servos, and also some plates. Hard to tell how it all works together, or what the advantages are. Can you elaborate?

I can see how it works… Are you sure the timing belts are tight enough for that kind of torque though? You slip a tooth, and now the entire leg is in an unknown position.
Couldn’t you make the same type of axle with a pushrod system? (yes, you would get slightly less then 180 degrees, but it would be more stable I think)
I think it’s strong enough to do what the image clearly shows it doing. lol The belts have a strength of several pounds. If it were to slip a tooth then it would not be in an unknown position. It would be in a position that was off one tooth and could be corrected easily. But I really doubt it would slip a tooh in the first place.
You’d have to be really breaking the rules to make it slip a tooth. I think the gears in the servo would strip before the belt slips. I gues it depends on how tight it is and how deep the teeth of the belts are.
