Doing some more work on the Equalizer project. Getting the radars to move. I have the front one oscillating which was pretty exciting. I'm hoping that was the hardest one to work out. The back one just spins, then there is the elevation for the weapons and the turret rotation. I'm also toying with the idea of flashing LEDs at the ends of the cannons, but haven't decided yet.  Here's a video of it tearing up my yard and almost getting stomped by one of my kids.  https://youtu.be/LE-cczNPboI

Weekend Research

Busy weekend so not much fabrication. Some tinkering with the cool motors I got from Joe Mauler Works. They’re super small. I’m trying to work them into designs for the Flak Mauler. Had to fix my son’s sink and that got me thinking of a firefighting Joe vehicle. Ladder and water pump sprayer. Maybe Barbecue as driver 😁 Best books. I had to get this, right?    Cool pic! Flak and engineering tank in one image. Terrible little sketches of how ill power the radars. Little water pump repair. Could be fun on a vehicle.
