Omg thanku so much, my brain is mush with all the automata vids I've watched. I just wanted to have a go at making a bird flying and its turned into a complete brain drain. How can something as simple as a bloody crank shaft and levers have me sitting here in total lala land lol. Im an artist, I've built my own home for crying out loud 🤣🤣 lol Strange how something so small and simple can stop me in my tracks..Im 64 yrs old.. My brain hurts lol...🤣😅🥰 Thanks again 😃
What I need is something that creates a parallel action but in reverse to the body that actuates the linkage. This linkage also needs to not bind vertical movement from the actuating body nor actuate when the actuating body moves vertically.
I have two linkage problems to solve. I would love to see some cardboard cut out to explain the motion as well as how it locks into place with an extended elbow/fulcrum. Can I post a link to 2 videos where I would like to see how the lever/linkage is demonstrated?
