Completed R2D2 minifig key chain. After realizing I have two R2D2 minifigs in my possession, I decided I would make one. The only thing I don't like about it is that the only way to glue the legs in keeps the legs from moving.
Thinking out chain tube stategy is a very worthwhile effort. In this case, both tubes are held with tube clamps. A bracket form the idler axle makes sure the tube does not interfere with the chains path anywhere, regardless of what chainring you are in.
A gem of the Dee Valley, the Chain Bridge was originally built in 1817 by local coal merchant Exuperius Pickering to open up a cheap transport route across the River Dee, enabling him to take coal to the A5.
It was later rebuilt by Henry Robertson during the 1870s and then by his son Sir Henry Beyer Robertson in 1928, who rebuilt the suspension bridge that stands there today.
Safety concerns forced the 19th century structure in Llangollen to close, but it was later snapped up by Llangollen town and Llantysilio community councils for just 50p each.
The council then spent £326,000 on restoring the bridge, which is thought to be the oldest chain links bridge in the world, back to its former glory.
The bridge will now help re-establish the strong link between the Llangollen railway and the canal, part of the Pontcysyllte World Heritage site.
