Friction Lock – Prototype to Try Out

Part of an up-coming model needs an adjustable balance beam. It's made from two parts. A beam, and a coin weight which can slide up and down the beam. Once the weight is in the right place it needs to stay in position. That is where the friction lock comes in. Find out how this useful paper mechanism works by downloading and making your own.
