I've been slow recently as the cough has developed into a Two week major YUK. My wife even has a cough now and it appears to be 'going around' , according to the Doctor. Anyone else suffering with it ?. It really is quite debilitating and sounds horrible to any listeners. !!
Correspondingly, the model making has slowed down but I can report that I have connected up two motors and can watch the oars going for'd and aft in a most amusing way.
They are driven by my variable voltage generator (tools from my past) and the speed can be highly controlled from idling to the Captain going surfing. It really is an amazing piece of artwork and as fascinating as I'd hope it would be.
At the moment they only go on a horizontal plane as the vertical plane actions have yet to be built. I shall have to make a movie just to show this action alone once I stop the oars falling out of their holders.
Thank you for the ten thousand views of this thread, so far. I'm feeling very humble.
