Tornado

I built this Tornado for the upcoming Worlds of Wonder exhibit at The Museum of Surrey. One of the themes in Wonders of the Natural World, including Tornadoes. A few VLC members remembered my whirlpool and figures I was the right person for this build. True! I like big moving builds. And while similar, I think this was harder, because I didn’t have a custom table supporting the top edge. Anyway, here goes!

Update: The tornady ran 90 days, before finally breaking down on the second last day of the 3 month exhibit! And no big crash! Just a few broken technic bits in the carousel. And after some repairs it was ready to spin again at Fan Expo 2020 this past weekend, so I got a good video.
