You're not going to believe this... we had a massive downpour yesterday, from around 6am to 4pm and then on and off through the night, and guess who left their window which was next to his stack of sketchbooks open....

Most of my best sketches, designs/diagrams (not just for amateur rockets), fan-fictions - basically a LOT of stuff I've deicated time to on paper has effectively been destroyed   Sign of the gods? Just kidding, but in all seriousness I've set them up to dry so hopefully they'll revive, but when I get home (I'm writing from class) I should have some simple designs hanging around that I can put pictures of up, although their the ones lacking detail and the "science behind it" stuff (which the others are chock a block full of).

And great clip Sushi    And Ratmastah I have seen SkyCube somewhere before and I just love their ideas, and it gave me some ideas also 

This is probably way off what you guys are talking about, but may as well give it a shot.

I've looked into various 'hexapod' designs before and these I found are quite attractive. I would say if you used light materials (balsa wood for example) with el cheapo servos first as a test (as to not strain the petit servos too much, and see their limits), persay, then you could progress to heavy duty expensive stuff as the funds increased.

These are a few, as far as I know they're not as expensive as the $1200 beast of a critter, but they do a good job.

Just whipped this up

Yeah, I thought so too.

 

I need a pool with fancy glowing blue things at the bottom with a switch so I can make them glow red while people are in it and set off an alarm. >.>

Then deploy dry ice or something through little pumps in the walls of the pool, with bubbles of course, and have fake human limbs float to the top. Oh the fun one could have...

Been watching Monty Python eh?

Haha you bet, but last time I watched 'The Meaning of Life' was, pshhh, 2 years ago aha, just a line I've managed to remember!

And so sorry, a large lack of computer has deprived my reply :'(
