My first impression of the photos and drawings of the Inchworm was "Lots of precision metal work here, along with some pretty complicated electronics. Don't see how we can come up with that."
Second impression was, well, Robert Crawley works for Precision Metal Fabricators, Inc., so maybe Inchworm isn't so unreachable. Then Joe's first comment was about "concepts," which is a lot different from precision metal work that someone else has done. Then the third thought was "Well, if Honey Beer is already building it, why not recruit them to participate in our project?" Could we hire them as partners/consultants if we had the $$? That's what I had in mind for a grant application.
What do you think? Prospects for commercialization are the strongest supports for a grant, so can we go for it?

Greetings,
Has anyone out there looked at this site yet:
http://www.honeybeerobotics.com/sample.htm
Looks like they have worked out some issues. Perhaps we can get a look
at some of their research.
