Greetings from South Africa
Thank you for accepting me. :wave:

Ive never done a bat schematic or drawing. The main reason is I built it by the seat of my pants a piece at a time.
Im hoping my next program will be able to show such a design, how it works and how it looks in operation, or at least
thats my goal.
Ive done many desktop items over the years, but only kept a plexi clock that sits above my computer.

Hi Art,

Did you ever
1) make the plans for the "Bat" spring powered sculpture?
2) design a tabletop sculpture

Thanks,
Carlton

Hi All,

It's been a while since I've been on, hopefully it is still looked at. :wave: I made Scimitar about 7 years ago and the weight windings have long since broke and I forgot how to wind it on the pulley. I think it was 1 goes CW and 1 goes CCW. Does it matter which one? front or back?

I particularly like that one... Better then the original I think.

Just found this ticker on youtube, based on scimitar.....

Hi Dan:

  Havent looked in quite awhile, but the original dxf's and project are the ones in the first messages of this forum, there were a couepl updates early on in the messages. Some of the parts were not shown as it was better to place them as you build them, ( which is typically what I do which is why they dont show.).

Yell if you feel anything important is missing though, I always have lots of bits and pieces laying here that I can dig through...
