I can post a photo of an early stage with all 3 cups attached just for $#|+s and giggles but once that is done they are coming down again stat!!
The central column is farrr too flexible with the new weight added. And the cups aren't even on yet.
I forgot which exact type of steel we have for the central column but the dimensions are 48mm diam with a wall thickness of 3mm.
This needs upgrading ;(
I would like to upgrade to aluminum because of the weight benefit. Something more like 100mm diam by 8mm wall.
But this time I would like to wait on it for a while to give the more experienced amongst us to have a say about it.
I'd like to prevent panic stages that could have been prevented by simply asking first before doing
