That’s a foot? That’s an ELABORATE FOOT!

Haha. Thanks?
Hi,
Awesome! Great work on the custom parts. 
Whats the total weight of one leg/feet section?
I believe this can be a very cool quad at the end, I like it!
I Like… I Like… I Like…!!!
I see one servo and one motor… what will they do. ?
Thanks, guys.
Total weight. Hmmm… I need to invest in a scale. If I were to guess I’d say it was around 3.5 to 4 oz.
The servo will move the tars. The motor is to drive the tracks in “tank” mode.
nice device 
like it too!!!
So I’ve got a bit more done with one of the legs. Still need to put a foot on it. I’ve got an idea for it, I just need to mill another piece. I’m pretty happy with it: it turned out more solid than I expected.
It might be some time before I’m able to continue building. I had an accident milling some delrin parts for my brother and I ruined the chuck on my spindle. I’ve got run out like crazy. So for now, I wait for a replacement.
It’s nice to see it coming together though
In the mean time I think I’ll play around with programming.
I enjoy you skills. The bot is comming together realy good… 
Looking great!
Nice to see it coming together. Very well made parts!
Can’t wait to see it finished, its gonna be awesome!
This is great, looking forward to seeing the progress 
Your parts came out great! Too bad about the chuck, what happened?

I was machining some parts for my bro when the bit stuck. The depth of pass was a little too deep. The spindle kept spinning while the bit didn’t. That and the table trying to move wore the teeth out in the chuck. Now I can’t hold any off the tooling straight. Boohoo 
I don’t have a puller either so its gonna be cheaper to just replace the whole spindle.
Oh well, the new one has a better chuck and it was only $90
So I’ve been playing around with programming the propeller. SPIN is pretty cool, object based languages make tedious things very simple.
I’ve made a video of the leg joints just sweeping back and forth. I’m starting to get the hang of the language and have some ideas on how I might create the gait engine.
P.S. I’m not sure how to embed this video 
. Little help please?
Sorry; can’t help you with your video embedding question. Just wanted to say I’ve been following your project with great interest. Wish I had your machining skills.
Thanks, Ted
And thanks to whoever helped with my vid
So which way to the treads face when on the 'bot? Inline with the leg?

I just clicked on the link, copied the url from the top, edited your post, clicked the youtube tag, and pasted the youtube link in between the tags. You’re welcome!
Ahhh, thanks guys!
Hey Alan,
I’m not sure I understand what you’re asking.
