    Impressive. Thanks for filming the tour so comprehensively. I still can’t grasp how it works! I must visit the Wheel and the Kelpies some time.

    I really enjoyed it on the Falkirk Wheel, clever engineering and it’s great to hear about how it all works. Always find the displacement theory fascinating.
    All the best, David & Rachel 👍

    Built by the Butterly company near Ripley Derbyshire. They also did the metal structure of St Pancras station. Sadly the factory is mainly demolished awaiting site development.

    Hi Bob, sorry to hijack this video, but I made some comments and asked a question on one of your older videos from 2 years (Installing Point Of Interest (POI) Files On A Garmin Based Sat Nav) I don't know if you still have notifications of comments on old videos and therfore don't know if you have seen it? thanks Doug

    • @BobEarnshawMoHo
      @BobEarnshawMoHo  5 місяців тому

      No I haven't seen a comment on the POI video, unless you replied to someone's comment. Ah, it must have been held for review because of the web URL. I may have approved it, and missed the comment.
