Following on from last weeks post about construction of Letizia & Roberto’s new house, here’s some latest pics (courtesy of Letizia – thanks!)
As you can see, the first floor is appearing now
(view from garage looking across “breezeway” to side view of first floor)
At the back, the house is getting REALLY TALL – and there’s still a second floor and roof to go!
(view to back of basement and first floor – eventually a deck will extend back from first floor)
Another boom lift vehicle we are working on – it needed a re-designed platform control box so Matt made one, seen here, out of wood:
Turns out, the box worked fine (and my software too), but the vehicle had 24V coils while the vehicle is wired 12V, so no movement!
Today, with a wiring mod, we were able to get the boom moving (but still no drive yet).
But this time, I haven’t changed my mind again … instead, Dr Obnxs and aftermarket enthusiast company FES-AUTO have adopted my “V6 auto-up windows MINI circuit” and are just now offering it for sale once more!
See their announcement on NorthAmericanMotoring
What’s more, they’re offering the circuit at a special low introductory price – so if you missed the chance when I was making the circuit … they’re back!
