Testing the winch!!

Today we set off for the river to do try our winch for real! The weather was beautiful, temperature above 20 degrees and all was set for a great day! Check out the video :) Big thanks to birthday-boy Eivind who brought along wet suites. Water temp was friggin' cold, so we would have frozen to death without the suit :p

Of course we discovered some minor flaws; the spool axle started moving in its axial direction, causing the chain to come off. So we had to abort the testing and fix this until next time. Thankfully the weather forecast for the next week looks great, so there will be more time for testing(if we forget the fact that we have four exams coming up the next to weeks).


If you're in the Trondheim area and your interested in seeing the winch in action, maybe you'd like to buy one(?) - feel free to contact us!
