Would love to have one again, just for the noise it makes.
When running? or when it hit the ground under your balcony?
When running, it made a mere (thud) on the sidewalk. Damn thing was
HEAVY, it was the easiest way to get it out the building (2nd floor). I
tried my damnedest to get it reliable again, it had timing issues. I
remember terminal strips and fabric wiring. Old!
This was 1984. I should dig out the pictures (on railing, midway, on
sidewalk).
