On October 7 2005 my son Jim helped in placing the concrete on the second block of the Stonehenge project.
|
I have increased the weight of my new block to 20,500 pounds. It will take about a month's cure time until the block will be ready for action. I have planned some variations of the technique to attempt increasing the horizontal speed of movement. |
Egyptian cradles or stone rockers?
|
In order to expedite moving of the counterweight I have chosen to use my round road. Segments shown in picture above. |
Now I can shift my counterweight of 2400lbs. in a matter of seconds, instead of minutes. I also believe this technique was used in ancient times at the quarries in Egypt with the channels that still exist. I can now readjust my required manpower numbers to a lower figure.
At present: I am working on
applying my techniques to something that may be useful in today's time.
