Your title had me worried that you spent $12K on a tin toy ferris wheel  ;)

Great video and perfect speed.

Thanks for the feedback Carl and Rog.

It looks good and the gearing on it is fantastic.  Really allows it to run at a realistic speed.

That's a nice one Charlie. A great speed to turn it and I really like your background. Your videos are getting progressively better.

Nice ferris wheel and an interesting engine running it as well.

Charlie, your ferris wheel is elegant... especially with the great reduction gearing!
