A device sized and shaped for insertion into a body includes at least one mechanical limb including a support segment, a first flexible section extending from the support segment and terminating in a coupling section, and a second flexible section extending from the coupling section and terminating in a tool or an connector for a tool. One or more of the flexible sections is bendable by at least 120°. A long axis length of the first flexible section is at least double a maximum extent of the first flexible section perpendicular to a flexible section long axis. A long axis length of the second flexible section is at least double a maximum extent of the second flexible section perpendicular to a flexible section long axis. |
