Great idea ;-) If I were picky I might suggest it's about 1/32-35 scale, with a shortened handle, but it suits the ZZMT very well anyway.

I spent a couple of hours trying to work this out, but replicating the 1:1 mechs would be a bit too difficult. Any ideas for a simplified mechanism? I need a really tiny ratchet mechanism :lol:

On my xmod size Highlift, i just drilled the saddle to line up with the holes in the vertical thing. Then just raise it up and insert a cross-pin to hold the height.

By all means, the real mechanism or a ratchet would be great, and I'm not wanting to talk you out of it. I just realized I like building cars more than tools so took the easy way out.
