Failed Idea

Radio Shack was having a clearance sale on Arduinos a while ago, but also had a clearance sale on Erector sets.  I got a few and found cool part that would be awesome as a leg piece. Unfortunatly, the idea had to die.  The servos seems to be a perfect fit, but they didn't have a shaft/pin on the bottom for stability (how do you guys do it?).  Next, the erector set pieces was too heavy for the micro servos and for the electronics to go on top.  In the end this was a failed experiement, but alot of fun to do.  Onto my next bot....
