    Just what I've been looking for for the anchor winch and (more importantly) the Rescue winch on the stern of my 1/72 destroyer.
    What is the minimum weight to ensure the 'free fall'?
    That was always my problem up to now.
    The winches I have need something like a tin of baked beans hanging on them to make them run out.☹️
    Cheers, Doug 😎

    Hi,
    A very good prototype.
    Looking forward to seeing the final winch.
    Well done.

    The base plate has been enlarged in the new model.
    The vertical base has been enlarged so that the guided rollers can also be mounted on this plate.

    Excellent stuffπŸ‘
    Any particular reason to use PCB board instead of brass sheet?
    Weight? Cost?
    Have you made a plan set by any chance?πŸ˜‰
    Keep it up, Cheers, Doug 😎
    BTW: How heavy is your anchor?
