Thanks! I've got a book about mechanical linkages. I'll bet Turbophil has a similar book. That four-link hinge he came up with to control the rear clam tilt path is genius. Here is a revised crab that actually looks more like a crab: revised crab
I did this one too: faster but not as cool spider It's faster, but takes eight legs and they are simple rotary motions. I think the D-path output of the first crab is a lot more interesting. Put a variation of this guy into junkyard: scorpion
