Tourbillon
































The first version of the frames. Only the blue frame had forced
spin, the white and red one spinned freely. The balance was important
and that is why the white one has a conterweight to balance the weight
of the axles.

When the blue frame turned 90 degrees, the weight of the seats made the
white frame turn. However because of the friction of the gears this ended
up to turn only the white frame while the 2 others stayed pretty motionless
inside of it.





One of the first versions had a motorlift. Unfortunately it was
way too slow. It took 2 minutes and 15 seconds to hoist the arms to the top.
