Re: Building the Portcullis

The Portcullis will be hard to accurately prototype dude to the mass of the real game element. Even though it only requires 5lbs of force to lift you need to factor in the true mass you are moving. And form calculations based on what it is made of that mass is a lot more than 5 lbs / 32ft/s^2.
