About
Four splayed iron legs on painted foot plates carry a bearing block at 3.4 m with a barrel bearing. The arm swings an extruded crescent blade 1.56 m across with a hub boss and an amber collar; amber chevrons mark the sweep on the floor. Overall size 2.6 x 3.64 x 1.9 m in metres, +Y up, +Z forward, resting on y=0. Node blade pivots on the bearing at y=3.4, parallel to X, so the arm and blade swing together. Clips: idle swings the blade 44 degrees each way over 3.2 s. Node TRS animation on named nodes only; no skinned rig, skeleton, collision or navigation data.
