Well hello again!


Well hello again! The single pulley hook is finished and the jib runner has its toolboxes. Finally the 2.5mm socket head screws arrived so I have managed to finish the winding drums as you can see the hex on the socked head is aligned up with a hole in the side frame a small key can be used the tension the ropes thanks to CaptBeetroot for the tip on the Carp line its super fine and very flexible. I have to do a little more work on the winding drums especially the split hoist drum.



  


 Ooops the drums are in the wrong location doh!
