Quick update to my Backscratcher Crawlerbot. I have replaced the rubberband motor with an electric motor scavenged from an old printer and a large pulley made from cardboard and a polystyrene pizza tray.

It is probably worth reading my video description first because the answer may already be there.

Generally my projects are for my grandchildren to enjoy. OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap.
