plant adock asked "can you make a car, that is power from a badge pulley". I couldn't find a badge pulley at a sensible price but I found an identical mechanism for clipping a pencil to your belt at 2 for £1 in the bargain store so I used that instead.

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. https://www.youtube.com/user/GrandadIsAnOldMan
