| Following the apparent tradition of folk using their gardens for first trial of a crane, here's mine :-). The crane is as simple as they come, but surprisingly ok. Still a few bits to sort out, like putting proper weights on rather than the bucket of water!, but on the right path. The crane was built in an afternoon after weeks of collating parts, most of which I didn't use, as reality kicked in and fancy bearings and stuff were left out. Here's the address of a web page with some early construction information. www.waveform.eclipse.co.uk |
