Astronomy lab

Now that we are social distancing in earnest including waiting in the car park to go into a shop that does not have anything in it becasue they have instituted Lord of the Flies shopping photocalls with the early bird gets the product because we cannot stock at any other time of the day.  And begin calm.

I started another project.  This one will be an astronomy lab.  This started with a zodiac circle.

 Then I built a mechanical solar system with some pins, wire, clock gears, mount board and a plastic ball.

Here is a quick mockup of what it will look like.

I have not decided if I am mounting on the ground or on a wall.  Any thoughts.
