Useless Box (Scotch Yoke)

Useless Box (Scotch Yoke)

Description

This is a little useless box that takes rotational motion as input when you turn the crank and outputs oscillating linear motion. I would give credit where credit is due for the inspiration for this creation, but all I remember is that someone put something similar up on reddit and I was inspired to make my own and share it. A couple of the parts may be a tight fit, but they are intentionally this way so that the box is a snap-fit build. If the rotation is initially stiff or catches at certain parts, just play with it for a while and it will loosen up. There was supposed to be a nice video of it functioning, but something on my computer isn't playing nice and it failed to upload several times. I guess just use your imagination, or even better, make it. (apologies)
