ME 553 (Kinematics) Final Project. A 6 legged walker driven by an electric screwdriver.
The goal was to create a four bar linkage and demonstrate it's motion with a hand crank. We went above and beyond the rubric by adding 5 other legs and a motor. It didn't need to turn, it didn't need to be efficient, it just had to demonstrate we did the calculations and analysis of the path of the outer most point of the linkage.
I'm sorry, but I will not share the details of this project beyond what you see in the video because that could be considered academic misconduct. Please don't ask me for the dimensions of the legs or the geometry of the mechanism. That information is what the project was graded on. If you would like details of the methods I used to assemble the project or my source for materials, I would be willing to help with that.

@JalmarEst It was a donation from an internship. I calculated the torque required to turn the legs, geared it down, and hoped it would work. It served it's purpose well.

It looks like you needed to gear the device some more, the engine looks to be in pain

@Claews It was. The axles weren't perfectly aligned, the chain tension wasn't supported by bearings, and nothing was lubricated. All three of those factors drastically increased friction. I'd do it differently now. You live and learn I guess.
