TSM08 Project - Rising Revolve

Main Idea

For my project I have decided to research a rising revolve - something like the Pride rock in the "Lion King" Lion King video. But I'm going to scale it down a lot. My idea is to have a build up stage with steel desk and have the revolve in the middle, which would mean I would need to build some arc rostra around the revolve.
