Hello J=F3n,
Congrats on your lehman!
From=20my experiences a lehman like that would wander all over
the place if you did not put in a box. The drafts and air currents
would drive it loco.
I suspect that main reason your lehman is deaf is that heavy cable
coming off the coil, I bet it renders the boom motionless.
I also agree with other who say the upright is too weak and that the
upper pivot is just as important as the lower one.
I also made my first lehamn HUGE and it was less better that the very
smaller ones I made. My first one was over a meter long with a BIG
mass.
BTW here is what I reported 5 minutes after the event, I nailed it!
