BTEC Lvl 3 Eng , new spec, Unit 27 or Mech princs (Old spec) resource

For anyone doing Funinculer Polygons for BTEC Lvl 3 Eng , new spec, Unit 27 or Further Mech princs (Old spec), I've put together an Onshape sketch. Each joint can be switched on and off, the magnitude of the forces are shown as are the reaction forces and it's labelled up with Bows notation. You can change the load values to see what happens or edit the 'Funicular Diagram' sketch and move the origin point around to see how the diagram is affected.
