Re: I Need Help With An Arm

I would say the easiest thing to build a forklift with is 8020. www.8020.net

This depends on how much equipment/resources you have build with.

If you do a forklift you definitely need to use a motor to move it up and down.
You can use either cable, chain, or a rack & pinion to move it up and down.

You will also need 3 stages to obtain the height you need to reach the center tetra.
