Oct 5, 2013 at 18:39 comment added jncraton You're welcome! It didn't take long. I've seen this sort of thing before.
Oct 5, 2013 at 16:20 comment added B22 Thank you. How long did it take you to come up with this?
Oct 5, 2013 at 15:55 comment added jncraton The general concept is that the reel on the wheels is consuming string from the other reel as the wheels turn. Once there is no additional string left, the wheels are forced to stop turning (or break the string).

Oct 5, 2013 at 15:47 comment added jncraton I added an extra image to my answer to try to make this a little clearer for you. I'll be honest though, since this seems to be for some sort of educational assignment or competition, I don't want to give you a complete perfect answer. This is the basic concept. You'll need to adapt it and improve it to work for you.
