Moving models

[Bonzo]

All my models move, powered by an elastic band. I suggest you allow the submission of videos as my models cannot by appreciated any other way. (New member signed up today).

It would be much simpler to upload a video to YouTube and link to it from the forum.

[rickstef]

Webdude is correct

upload the videos to youtube
then use the following tags to post here on the forum [ youtube ] and [ /youtube ](remove the spaces between the brackets to make the code work)
with the last part of the url after the = sign in original youtube link

Helix- a marble runs uphill.

I would like to share the attached with anybody who is interested.
My grateful thanks to Miles Linnabery for his interest, his time in building and testing and the help, advice, recommendations and suggestions for revisions to the parts and instructions.

[Vermin_King]

Wow. You did a very nice job with this and the instructions

Dear Friends:
Yes indeed the helix works, However the cats (2) are taking the marble out of it and hiding it. It does work out of 110# card stock and it will print out on 8 1/2 by 11 card OK. John do you want me to post some of the beta build pictures here?

Miles,

Thanks, but I suggest we just let them build it and discover for themselves what it does.

And Yes I have more!

Here is another one!

Ring Pull. "For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction" Not necessarily just the one...

[maurice]

Oooh! Used to use empty wooden cotton reels for that and call them "tanks".

Also used to have a cat called Bonzo - but don't expect you're related.
:)

Welcome to the forum.

It was my nickname at school - when I made tanks. I have found that paper has a similar co-efficient of friction to wood.

Here is a link to "You tube" showing some of the models that I have made. Alas, not all of them paper.
