Darren Tibbey Posted July 25, 2017 Report Posted July 25, 2017 Going to make a inflatable spider. Head and body l should be ok with but how do l get the legs to stay out without bunching against the body? Any ideas anyone? Quote
Chook Posted July 25, 2017 Report Posted July 25, 2017 Gotta have very thin carbon/fiberglass rods in each leg to get them bouncing about and to splay them out maybe??? Darren Tibbey 1 Quote
spotter Posted July 25, 2017 Report Posted July 25, 2017 Have a look at the Peter Lynn Crab. It has small tubes that inflate then bridals holding them in place. Quote

mik333 Posted July 26, 2017 Report Posted July 26, 2017 Spotter is right. Tube legs fill with air and are held in position, close to the body or splayed out using minor bridle lines. Sounds like an interesting build. Michael Quote
Darren Tibbey Posted July 29, 2017 Author Report Posted July 29, 2017 Looked at the peter lynn crab more work on the legs than anything else. Going to take a few tries to get right im thinking. Quote
