This is going to be strange

This will probably be mostly about my android project and website.

Cables

It looks like almost everything is going to be moved by cables pulled from a few central locations.
I think the larger joints will have to be moved by hydrolics.



Bones

I have nearly completed the work on a vertabra that should allow the spine to move in all directions as well as rotate some, in Turbo CAD. I will be able to attach the rest of the skeleton directly to it but making all this walk and move correcly is going to be alot of work.
I think maybe I should use fiberglass for the spine and ribs because it would probably work better and flex like a spine and ribs would not to mention light. The vertabra idea is too difficult.
