Are you running it with a belt and pulley or wiring it up to a genny?
Belt & pulley Nick.
Not 100% sure how I will do that though, been studying Bruce's vids.
@St Paul Steam
Uh oh , been a day or two since I built it , but slow & sure is the order of the day , I remember taking it back apart a few times because of a incorrect piece used in the wrong place. If I can be of any assistance
Jim, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks Bruce, much appreciate the offer of help and I will most definitely take you up on that when I get more along as I can't work out from your vids how you put your pulley that you turned on your lathe into the mechanics of the ferris wheel. Young James wants to make it just like "Bruce's" as he's really impressed with the fairground atmosphere that you created with the ticket booth etc so I can see that the rest of my year is taken up in the afternoons with my grandson and I thank you for that
