looks easy to adjust the tension. nice.
does that belt have teeth on both sides?

krADLEY · February 1, 2006, 4:42pm

Yes it does

krADLEY · February 1, 2006, 4:43pm

They are small though so that may need to be looked at

Shooter or lifter?

krADLEY · February 1, 2006, 5:35pm

This is the lifter. I’m intending on posting the shooter later in the week.

Looks heavy.

Is 25-30 lbs about right??

krADLEY · February 1, 2006, 5:45pm

Yea it is rather heavy. We are planning to drill holes throughout the frame to decrease the weight. Even after it may be heavy. The bright side is, the material is extremely strong.

its not all that heavy. with the motor it comes to 18 lbs. The material, minitek is indestructable. its strength to weight ratio is incredible.
