#3 Standard Wogglebug Mods?

2002-12-18 by xamboldt

About 2 weeks ago, drmabuse mentioned that he added some "peripheral
features" to his DIY wogglebugs (see below).  I was wandering if the fair
doctor (or anyone else who has done anything similar) would be so kind as to
share some details of some of these features to those of us who plan on
woggling our own bugs in the near future...

(am I just lonely or does "woggling our own bugs" sound like I'm talking
about something completely different?)
