M6 - Maypole 6 Mini-Ring Simulator.

The M6 is a free standing, mini-ring simulator, comprising 6 dumbells around a central Maypole with 6 arms. It requires no more than 2.5m headroom, with no heavy bells and no overhead structure.

It is especially useful for teaching new ringers, marketing bell ringing at tower open days etc. and makes bell ringing very, very accessible. It can even be used for performances away from a tower, taking wedding bells to any venue.

The M6 is fully transportable and easy to assemble. It is a tight fit in the back of my Renault Megan estate car with the tower on the roof rack. It fits comfortably inside an MPV or small van.

The assembly process can be completed by one person in less than an hour, only a small pair of steps/hop-ups is required, and just a few hand tools provided in the kit.

The kit comprises:

• Six Dumbbells.
• Maypole and base.
• Arms.
• Detachable table tops.
• Pulleys.
• Ropes (Sally colours to your own choosing from our extensive range).
• Sensors, cables and connectors.
• Fully painted and varnished.
• Tool kit, spare fixings, spare leads.
• Full printed and electronic pictorial copies of assembly, use and safety instructions.
• Printed Health and Safety Event Risk Assessment proforma.
