Giant Mechanical Spider
August 13, 2008

“Built by Martin Montesano, this mechanical spider measures 23-feet long and weighs in at a whopping 6-tons. It’s powered by a Chevy-based V8 engine, mated to a modified TH400 transmission. Thanks to a leaf-spring suspension system, a 2.5-ton military axle, 56 pivot points, and 114 bearings, it’s capable of 5-feet strides — step height of 41-feet.” w/ photos + video
