Battery Powered Mini-Cable-Car

Featured Replies

A couple of friends and I are building an electrical miniature cable car, kind of like the one in the picture.

 

 

We're mechanical engineering majors and love this kind of things but we just started out and don't really know much yet, so we're just looking for new ideas as to how to go about doing this.

So how would you do it?

 

Motor Specs:

Looks something like on the picture.

 

9volt battery powered.

The only rule is to work this exact motor.

We are thinking of using gears but we're not sure how many, etc. So we would love to get your opinion!
Thanks in advance! It will be finished in about a week so we'll be posting pictures here when we're done!
