Thank You for a words of motivation Wink

It was planed as a 3 span Vitruvian - so dimension of the springs is about 74 mm. All other dimensions are calculated from this one of corse.
Arms are just something that we found in the garage to make first photos. Real ones should be 53 cm long and curved (1D curvature). Next will be the plating and most imortant thing - the washers. Seems if we wont have a iron or brass washers shooting distance will be poor.

Now it seems a lot of finishing work to make it good looking and good shooting. Honestly we thought that making such a machine is much easier, cheaper and faster Wink
Sorry for my English.
