Garage Shutter

This is an object I draw in order to counterbalance the weight of my garage shutter. This is needed when you change the weight of the main door. In this case you need to counter-balance the weight used at door side.

To do this I built this object. It is a very easy container with a whole used to be fixed at the beginning of the gear with a screw.

To increment the weight you can fill it using small lead balls. I bought some lead plates used to balance wheels of the car. It works well and is more stable (see the picture). Use some glue to fix it better.
