Alan,

The pit is still there but not in a good location for public 
display.  However, we can run the cable to an overhead pulley and have the 
weight drop from there to the floor.  Might make a better display that way 
since more of the action would be visible and the rewind would occur much 
more often.

Regards,
Larry
