I remember seeing something very similar to this before. I know you can make a good argument for the weight of this setup (forces a lighter arm and a lower CG) but I think 70lbs is pretty heavy for what you've got going on there.

Also, unless I'm looking at it wrong, it seems like those rods could get bent into the wheels causing a jam.

Anyway, keep up the nice work!
