First steps - Arial Screw

The first design that I am going to make is the Da Vinci Arial Screw (Helicopter). I thought that it would make sense to start at the bottom so I began with the base and the turning mechanism.

To begin I created a tube and a cylinder and aligned and attatched them together to create the base, I then made another cylinder to create a 'mast' that the sail will sit on.

The tuning mechanism is again, a set of cyliders in different positions to make the mechanism and the handles;

This is the design so far:
