Mechanical Elephants
November 19, 2008
“This amazing mechanical design was made out of transmission parts, electrical conduits, plumbing pipes and 20-gauge cold rolled steel. It is 36″ x 36″ x 18″ and weighs about 85 pounds. All the joints move and lock in place; turning a gear on the elephant’s side winds a cable around a shaft which raises and lowers the trunk; the ears move back and forth and can fan out.” w/ photos
