Kit or Scratch build
Hi sorry took so long to reply (we were away for a few days)Yes your idea is much in line with mine -was planning to obtain motor from scaletrix car and use a " drive shaft " type system as the winch. I have a telescopic screwdriver which I presently plan to recycle into the hydraulic ram arrangement. The screwdriver is 2.5 mm into 3.00 mm.
Thanks again for your kind assistance
Regards
Ian

The use of the scalextric motor removed from a car is being considered as an economy motor which can be easily "reversed" and can readily/hopefully be geared down to operate the lift at a sensible scale speed
Hope that the above makes some sense

I thought you mean it telescoped from 2.5mm up to 3mm. Now I see what you mean - a 2.5mm tube fits inside a 3mm tube …………….:roll: Your reference to a radio aerial released the penny …….:cheers.
