I've been thinking a lot about legs recently (don't we all? :-).
If you're going to do a nice leg, say Brooksian, it seems like
you'd need about one miniboard per. If you use 6 legs on your
beastie, that's quite a few miniboards. Is that a good way to go?
Or is something a bit more powerful a better idea?

Miniboards are such a nice "out of the box" solution, but a chain
of them like that sure would suck down the juice.

Questions:

Does anyone have sources for some good leg designs?

Any good text book suggestions (I have the miniboard and 6.270 docs)?

There are lots of lists of Electronics/Motor suppliers around, but
what about other hardware? Aluminum stock for legs, chassis, etc?
Tool suggestions, etc., anything that comes to mind?

Is there an FAQ for this group?
