biped stand (for testing bipeds)
« on: October 14, 2009, 08:29:40 PM »
I'm looking around for biped stands . . . mostly ideas . . . but google thinks that 'biped stand' means 'a biped that can stand' - so searching has been a failure. :-X

This is all I can find:

Anyone know of others? I just need pics of some . . . I have ideas, but want to see what others have done before I make my own.

I was also thinking of some type of wheeled 'granny walker' for my biped, so that its easier to test walking . . .

I'd think of something along the lines of a Jolly Jumper sort of thing, it will give free movement but with the added safety of a tether that keeps it from falling or going into places that you wouldn't permit it to do so.

Have you seen this stand that Tyberius was using at trossen?

Almost looks like it is pretty much something like a Jolly Jumper. ;D
