Are those cylinders strong enough? There will be side loads .... |
Each one, with some wiggle room, should lift about 45 lbs at 110ish psi. Side loads shouldn't be an issue do to the lack of hard mounting on the rod. Using the lifting eyes should just allow it to slip, right?
The amount of lever arm that is created by the module with only one mounting point in sheet metal would be a bigger concern to me. Then again, maybe the omnis won't allow much side load due to the fact that they are omnis...
If I was a balding man, and Dean Kamen signed MY head, I'd immediately make my way to the nearest tattoo parlor and have them make it a permanent fixture. I wouldn't have washed it off! Just saying. - Carolyn_Grace [more]
