Abstract
We construct a one-parameter family of singly periodic translating solutions to mean curvature flow that converge as the period tends to 0 to the union of a grim reaper surface and a plane that bisects it lengthwise. The surfaces are semigraphical: they are properly embedded, and, after removing a discrete collection of vertical lines, they are graphs. We also provide a nearly complete classification of semigraphical translators.
