  Horizontal CranesI have another wonderful idea and proposition. As we all know we have elevators (thanks to Sim_Doc). But i was just wondering if anyone could make a crane that delivered soldiers vertically.
e.g. over a deep gorge. So if anyone who is just as enthused about something that could make base life easier please make it, cause I just don't have the time these days.  Edit:  p.s. pic has been updated sorry if I miss guided anyone with last picture. Attachments:

Re: Vertical Cranes If it's enclosed with a tunnel anyways, why bother? [unless it were really fast]
If it went along a no-collision cable, though, that could be handy, especially if it didn't have to be straight horizontal, but could automatically work between two points. I may give that a try sometime. In the meantime, this might serve your purposes. viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17907&p=334158&hilit=accelotron#p334158  (you can fiddle with equal opposition to make it a little safer to use) Last edited by Azukki on Mon Feb 21, 2011 4:35 am, edited 5 times in total. |

Re: Vertical Cranes I see what you're getting at, you want the lift to be combined with this to make a crane-like construction?
