Bruce Hansen's Circle Swing Ride

Bruce Hansen writes:

This Circle Swing model built from a 1916 #6 type I set is the obvious predecessor to the Airplane ride lead model of the 6 ½ set.

The model is driven by a P-58 motor (I used a rubber band instead of string to drive the gear box).

The motor spins the “canoes” at about 30 RPM’s.
