This is the 16th episode of a (currently) unrevealed mystery project. i am pretty sure that at some point, someone else comes along with the right guess.
(Youtuber "Rolingmetal" was the first who got the right idea...:)
If you got an idea, please send me a message with your guess, so we can keep the mystery for a little bit longer.
If you got the right idea, your name goes to the list at the bottom of this page
Please also watch the other parts, the project playlist is here

Please subscribe, it really helps to grow this channel as Youtube recently made life much harder for small channels like this.

This is a rather large project and the timeline slipped already as too many other things get into the way. This video series will just follow along the progress as it happens, obviously interrupted by other things with higher priority.
Due to it's complexity and the number of parts required, we would probably use any machine in the shop at least once.
On top of the mechanical bits there is also a fair bit of electrics/electronics and pipework/hydraulics to come with it.
All conceptual decisions are made and rough sketches are on paper, but availability of (cheap/free) materials and parts may lead to alterations, because the whole project runs on a shoestring budget by decision.
On a $50k budget anyone can build or even buy something like that off the shelf, but i want to spend much, much less than this, well see how the bill looks like at the end ...:-)

In this part we talk about the motor drive system and machine some pulleys, .. and screw one up ...:-)

Next part should not take too long to come as time is running, but as usual, other project getting in the way, so the next video might be something else.
