Close, but still far away.

It's funny, I went through all the painstaking effort to make certain the structure was sturdy enough to support the current design and made improvements as I saw fit, but it still fell short of my expectations!

 

Since the walker is segmented, I was concerned the head would pull the front portion of the body away from the middle, causing an unmistakable gap. I really hoped all the effort accomplished would prevent this, but I still had doubts… and I was right! It did not hold up as I wished, and any improvements I made to the chassis afterward cause little to no difference. None of it worked!

 

*Heavy sigh*

 

I am trying to avoid a major redesign, but the current state of this one makes it near impossible. Otherwise, I have to cut back on some of the ambitious features that limit the structural potential of the chassis, but that would defeat the whole concept of this project.

 

Not an option for me. I will keep trying. So, one major redesign to the chassis coming right up!
