This wind-driven version of Theo Jansen's Strandbeest is considerably simpler than most of the designs posted, using only 4 basic parts for the body of the beest. The first simplification is that the leg units print-in-place, pre-assembled. The second is that the crankshaft prints as a single, monolithic unit. Add 2 end pieces and connection rods on the side and you have yourself a Strandbeest! This version is actually wind driven. In the animations shown, it is driven with a table fan on it
