      Thank you Rich and Charles.

      Rich, I expect I'll need to build out the shop more before I try to animate it. πŸ˜‰

              This is getting better and better. I was going to say, when is the animation coming but Rich beat me to it.

                I got a little sidetracked.

                  That's some delicious modelling in the axle. Especially the top of the neck as it tapers and bends.

                          I'm not exactly sure what this is used for but I made a model of it anyway. The handle drives the ratchet wheel which drive the pointy bit on top upward. There's a tapered squre hole on the bottom of the handle which would appear to allow the handle to sit on something. I presume the pointing bit is used to split something.

                          And a cut-away view showing the threads and the rachet wheel and pawl.

                                Do what? Make 3D models in SketchUp? Yes. This model is an assembly of a bunch of separate parts I modeled mostly for my own entertainment and to practice using SketchUp.
