bucket with water
Hey, guys and gals! I’m working on a little graphic intro for the Engineering Department at my college. The concept is a kind of contraption with gears, pulleys, etc. that work together to eventually lift up the title of the video. I’m trying to make a bucket that gets water poured into it and subsequently gets heavier and pulls down on a rope. I made the bucket with CC cylinder and have it rocking back and forth. The thing I’m not sure how to do is add a handle that stays connected to the right points on the bucket. Any ideas?
Thanks! -

The problem is that the bucket is rocking using the rotation of the cylinder, so the position of the handle mounts changes in a non-uniform way. Also, I’d like the handle to act as though it is holding the bucket up, so the top of it would stay somewhat stationary while the bottom where it is attached to the bucket would move with the bucket. I had an idea to make some tracking points on the solid i’m using for the bucket and then track those and apply them to the handle layer somehow. Do you think that would work?
