Iain,

I have now built the better part of the "balance of power" game board.


I was very worried about how I was going to make the board level.  turns
out,  after a few test screws, I found the center of the 2x4.

A few "extra" twists of the nut, and with the magic of friction,  I can
adjust the game board from free swinging, to as tight as a new
brides..... (never mind)

my point is that right now, its "set" so that you need to place 3 AA
batteries on the 12" mark, to start to tilt the board.


I will soon, take pictures, and post images with more info as to the
size of the lumber, and parts list to make your own.(1)

1. parts from Home Depot Canada(2). I can not assure you that the part
numbers cross any boarders.
