I hope you also have a look at the wiki, the link is on top of the page. And if you want to explore a few "how to build" pages have a look here: Scanner build list wiki
The wiki is still under development but there are a few already done to get you started.

Re: Master Index of All Scanner Builds.

Re: Master Index of All Scanner Builds.
I have made a scanner but the description is in french as the intended target audience are fellow book fan site members. There are plenty of photo's and third post describes the central manual trigger whose details are clearly visible. All inclusive the remote triggering system costs 6 €. Measurements are in metrics and expenditures are given in Euro.

Off topic I'm afraid but that is the first time I have seen horizontal bricks on a ceiling! Is there a form made that fills the whole cellar and then removed? I've seen vaulted brick ceilings but not flat.

Re: Master Index of All Scanner Builds.
Nice work, David. Have you considered extending the horizonal pipes toward the operator and then joining them to a transverse pipe with two elbows to form a handle?
