      I expect it could be printed. All the parts are solid components. The guy that got me started on this makes these things from wood.

      And thank you.

            Thanks gentlemen.

            Animation will have to wait until after the tutorial.

                    I'm not sure I'd have the patience to make #60 roller chain out of wood but the guy who got me started does. The tutorial I'm doing will be about making it in Sketchup which isn't so bad.

                      A few more than that but not too many.

                      Thank you.

                          I expect there'll be more development but probably not by me. I wouldn't be surprised if he draws up the whole thing but beyond this lift, I have no idea what he's working on.
