Note: I don't do machine design engineering now, but this page shows what I have done in the past.

QUOTE: "Aeroplanes are not designed by science, but by art in spite of some pretense and humbug to the contrary. I do not mean to suggest that engineering can do without science, on the contrary, it stands on scientific foundations, but there is a big gap between scientific research and the engineering product, which has to be bridged by the art of the engineer." -- Anonymous. Printed in the June 2004 issue of Desktop Engineering magazine.

Each mechanism, designed by Roy Al Rendahl,
uses two counter-rotating offset pivots, the top one
rotating at twice the speed of the bottom one and
moving with a bearing in a slot on the actuator arm.
I refer to my mechanism as the "Crazy Kicking Feet"
because that is what it looks like when running,
but it worked and the customer was so happy with it
that they ordered another complete machine
from ADCO Mfg.

with his brother, Dave. Roy designed the package label, displays, and manufacturing process. Shown here is the
