   My god, these are so captivating. I could watch that trammel of Archimedes all day.

   It’s not technically a mechanical animation, but my favorite Wikipedia animation is this one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Viscosity.gif

   The first one wouldn’t work because it is picking up two legs at a time. Which means it would just fall over. It would have to have at least six legs.

      I assume it has the same number and configuration of legs on both sides… much like a spider.
