this is her first video- Second one down on the page- actually showing
how to construct the wheel out of lightweight materials. Here is the
next video showing how she works it; oops! it had a really monstrously
long URL, but there is a link in the video above that you can click to
get to it.


And here is the mop bucket from amazon;

It does seem very lightweight, but she is after all working it. I
would like to try her method. My wheel is very heavy. And it is a kick
sideways one.

There is too much music and not enough instructions- but the concept
is very simple. She has used relatively lightweight materials and
their function as a spinning mechanism.

And here is the update on elimination of wobbles.
