Well I changed my mind , Just couldn't leave well enough alone and decided to add an operators shed half way up one side of the of the steelwork. I glued up some I-beams and u-channel to support the new structure.
next I added a pulley system to the counter weights to give them some more heft.
They are just some and scrap triangular shaped braces glued together with some washers as the pulleys.
In order to hide the round dimples on the inside edge of the bridge section I cut some U-channel to fit and glued them in place over the offending spots.
