Tested the TE1A crane!!!I tested my crane yesterday, it lifted 2 1/2 pounds, then the belt snapped. It maybe could have lifted more, but i need to make a basket. Pretty good for all belt drive.

Now you're talking Logan.
We can see what your project entails now.
I have to say . I like it. Good to see engines used for other than the usual purposes.

Looks like your Erector set is attempting to mate with a Mamod!
Remember Sid Phillips in Toy Story, the kid who put a rocket on Buzz Lightyear?
It's great to create stuff, Logan. Could you show a more complete view?

Safety valve looks straight to me

Looking at it again Logan, it may need a few more stays securing it to the roof for better stability.

This is the one i ran, the one that lifted 2 1/2 pounds, then the belt snapped (lousy rubber bands) And the saftey valve is not as bad, but i had to put a wilesco seal because the rubber mamod one cracked.
