Subject: Pins/claws
Here's the link to the micro pins (for claws) I mentioned during the telecon, and a few images of the fan-footed gecko. Bob and I are working on a comprehensive survey of feet not only in geckos, but in climbing animals in general. By end of July we should have a good library of designs so we can pick the best features -not just copy one species.
