Ever wonder what it might be like to ride your hex? Just incase you were, check this video out.
very interesting use of cams and levers
I remember seeing this a while back. Super cool, must weigh a lot, it put some craters into the asphalt.
Thats pretty cool. I’ve never seen anything like that (I can’t imagine how much they paid for those parts. Unless they dug it out of the garbage. 
)
It looks like he built most of it from plate and tubing. The joints and stuff I’m sure he had to buy or salvage from a junk yard, but really for a straight mechanical implementation it works really well.
It looks like it has some problem with turning around… Very high friction against the ground.
My favorite is this hexapod. youtube.com/watch?v=CgBNjdwYdvE
Very smooth moving!
heh, I seriously doubt though that some guy built that in his garage. 
Thanks for pointing that out.
