  • did you cover the middle holes in the disks?

  • nope

  • a bit complex. perhaps making collapable pockets like mini parachutes that collapce once the air pressure has disapated. may be simpler. think of a pouch. maybe.

  • yes ive seen those i think a negative pressure effeect like a sail may be possible with that,the actual design i may use has a wing effect but the blade act as this vid shows but on a hub as a squirl cage configuration,in all truth i dont like this concept much the energy t omove the blades is mor then i thought it would be

    a larger device is needed to tell

  • hmmm spring idea didn't work too well... but

    llewgnal hase a nice idea... perhaps that might work :) keep up the good work :)

  • a cam that allows consistant proper positioning is the only way this will work

    eradic emediat movement is killing the concept a gragual slow to react cam assembly may make this workable magnets would cause knocking just as the springs and partial cam set up im using now,,but thanks for the comment

  • Have you thought of useing magnets to activate blades, mounted to the rail so you could adjust the timeing, other magnets could be put on fan tubes orented so they work right, this would reduce the friction, and use the force...

    Sometimes 1 + 1 = 3 . May the force be with you... Gary

  • from an old old old printer

  • Nice work dude.
