hi everyone. i am gonna make a paddle machine or a canoe machine, i am not sure what the official name is, for my A level project in product design... so i've got some questions i want you to help me with...

does anyone know anything about the mechanism used?

does anyone know the names of any companies who make these, so i could get in touch with them?

and i suppose i'd better know is it called a paddle machine or a canoe machine or what?!

i've tried google but its a bit unspecific on the most important points...

cheers

It's called an isokenetic machine - as favoured by Richard Fox.
