Theo Jansen Strandbeast

cults3d

3d Printable model of Theo Jansens Strandbeast. This is a newer model revised to be more sturdy and made with only 3d printed parts. the original was a bit flimsy. If you make this smooth enough it will walk just by pushing it. based off of Theo Jansens work https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYGJ9jrbpvg Heres a video of a guy who used it to replace a bike tire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQ6ncsUn5Nk Video- of actual model (Shown in the gif) https://studio.youtube.com/video/trMeMFs3mZE/edit Here's a video of the old one in action. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTqAx7ZzXTY First of all, it's not as complex as it looks. there's a lot of moving parts, but once you create one working leg, the rest is just copied.. Included are couplers for layering as many as you want. it takes 4 complete legs to make a working walker. I've "Dot Coded" the linkages they correspond to the diagram provided.
