Ease-up sloth hook

This is a remix of my pop-up monkey hook and AwesomeA's sloth bust. However, because sloth's aren't known for their 'popping' I've also added a bit to allow the the sloth to ease up and down. I've also swapped out the tail for a leg because the stubby tail of a sloth wouldn't make a very good hook.

The cavity to the side of the pivot needs to be filled with a non-hardening putty such as Silly Putty. The speed that the sloth comes up at can be adjusted by trimming the slots on the lever. With all of slots on there it moves very slowly even with a heavy object on the hook and a rubber band is required to help it reset(which means it won't move at all with light objects). With one slot trimmed off it moves moderately slowly with heavy objects and reseats a bit faster but still requires a rubber band and won't move with light objects. With two slots trimmed off you may be able to get it to work
