Ron RC's CG Machine

This very easy to build low cost ($11.00 US dollars) CG machine is the invention of Ron RC from Mikey's RC forum. I made some slight changes to the design of it and not mentioned in the video is that I increased the vertical supports from 8" to 10" and added an additional 12" piece of threaded rod to the bottom of the supports so that they don't move outward when a heavy plane is supported. The changes were made after the video.

Parts list and pictures can be found at mikeysrc.com/rc-forum/showthread.php?3527-5-Homebrew-CG-Machine

The thrust machine I mention in the video can be found on mikey's rc forum as well at

Where did you get cover on top of your workbench?  I want one. I like the way you can just easily check measurements while you are working. Please let me know.
