Subject: [alt-beam] Re: Snake
Actually I've built one. Besides myself though I don't know anyone else who
has built one. Ian said he was working on his own but I haven't heard
anything else. It's not to difficult a project to undertake, I plan to have

took just to get the web site up, don't hold your breath. I would recomend
analyzing photos of snake bot that are avalible on the net at solarbotics.
Thats how I built mine.'
