To the builder:
I am having way too much trouble getting it to start. I adjust and adjust the cylinder but it never seems to reach a magical place where the gears "spin freely". The guide also gives no instruction, it just says to adjust the screws until you get it.
What height are you putting the screws at? How wide should the spacing between the two brass pieces that contain the spring be?
Thanks

How is it possible to let this drive? I mean, as soon as you take it of the stand you can't heat the glass cylinder anymore. Am I missing something?

Actually they didn't even give you an LED , its an old filament bulb

you should make it charge a battery and then flick a switch and it will light up a L.E.D.

As long as you are trying and looking, you may discover something new. Every application seems to have some benefit that the others dont. Think of all the people who are new to this! Do they want a confusing display early on?

you get more light from the flame
Cool, for $119.99 US you get a model that will make a LED flicker.
