Summer 2

Second Year Summer

My second year at Edinburgh Instruments was spent during covid which meant I only had 1 day a week in the office. 

The major project of the summer was this trolley for holding a gas canister weighing around 45kg when full.

Octagon base allowed for extra stability and 8 castor wheels so the weight was distributed evenly between them all.

3&4: Plate to support canister is raised and lowered using a large bolt and nut on each side.

Final CAD Version has been lost. This was first iteration.
