Can anyone give me some advice in designing one? Right now, my design is a simple lever arm. It has a pivot point and counter weight. It also has a wheel to allow the arm to rotate. The arm is a circular pipe inside another circular pipe, this allow for translation and rotation. Any feedback on this matter would be very helpful.
