I made a ferris wheel

admin

Hi All,got my first big project done.  It was used as a display for a garden show in RI.  Anyways, the youtube description doesn't mention that it was made with my Lincoln 140, .025 wire, and CO2/argon mix.  Hope you enjoy.  There is a second video on youtube of it running in a nice quiet front hallway.-Luca

Reply:Thanks folks!I figure I'd post a link to the other video.  It will let you get a better idea of how it's built, though I must say that the appearance of the welds isn't really top notchhere it is:  -Luca

Reply:that's pretty cool, this is the ferris wheel i played a part in building, the new docklands observation ferris wheel in melbourne australia.this is why we needed to make a new one, the first one was designed in japan, they they didnt account for enough heat expansion in the original design which led to the picture below
Reply:haha, one upped might be an understatement!  That's some scary stuff though.  Kind of baffles me that something so important to large structures could be overlooked.Next time I suppose I should be more accurate with my thread titles
