New Leg Design

During the stress analysis we didn't realise how thin the walls were in the crane legs at just 1mm so a new design was made. The walls are now 10mm thick so during the new stress analysis a larger second moment of area was calculated.

I = 1.0479e-6 m^4
P(critical) = 55,862N
mass = 7.53kg
