Initial base designing thought process

Brainstorming

The first thing to be decided was the number of legs the crane was going to have and the reason behind it. The problems to be considered were:

- It is supposed to stay stable on rough terrain

- It has to be small.

- I t has to be portable.

- It should be easy to disassemble it.

- The material to be used at the base.

Looking at different examples and brainstorming

Thought Process

This machine is fragile as it uses electronic equipment and will not be suitable for rough terrain

and it will also prove to be expensive.

Thought Process

This machine focuses more on lifting rather than moving which will be an issue as the design is supposed to move a thousand kg over 4 meters and stability of the base will still be an issue.
