In the end it turned out to be more of a novelty than I originally envisaged. ![]() PICT_B_2201 ![]() PICT_B_2202 ![]() PICT_B_2203 ![]() PICT_B_2204 ![]() PICT_B_2205 ![]() PICT_B_2206 ![]() | ||

But, I think the term diminishes the beautiful work you've done. I agree with Mike that it should be in a museum display. Clare | ||

So, once again, thanks for your comments! Let's not get into the 'Museum Quality' discussion. ![]() bensid54: I was playing with a way to make an RC oar powered ship (although I have no intention of building one). I experimented with programming a microprocessor to drive servos that sweep and raise the oars. That way you can vary the stroke length to control speed and direction, whilst keeping the two sets of oars synchronised. | ||
