Looking good! Was the cable ok that I sent?
No probs, I sent about 8 m I think Matt needed about 5.Not been to see Matt yet, I'll have to get in contact with him.
Are you going to fit mechanical stops after the limits to stop it being physically rotated too far?
That looks fantastic! (Can you adopt me?)
You'll have a lot of work on your hands to top that next year.
this will be far better then anything you could have bought him due to the fact that you have spent so much of your time to make something special for your sonI'm pleased to say it works beautifully. The final rotation speedo the turret is 14 seconds to do a complete revolution. I opted for this design rather than a direct drive via gears so that if my son pushes the arm of the crane then the drive mechanism will just slip rather than destroying the motor gearbox.
