John Hill:
Ahhhhh!

bogstandard:
Well!!

sbwhart:
Video ???????

John Hill:
Sorry, I cant manage a video, I only have narrow gauge 'broadband' and I do not have a video camera.

I got it up to a few thousand RPM by repeated stroking with a cord, it goes well enough to demonstrate the principles but there are many aspects to the balancing of the gimbals that are not quite right.

OK for the shelf though! :med:

sbwhart:
Well done that man  :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

It looks a nice job  :thumbup: I'd thought you'd have gone for a more of an ''all black look''.  :lol:

Getting things balanced correctly is a bit of a black art you've got static balance and dynamic balance, and then you've got different harmonics of vibration thrown in for good measure, I don't understand the physics (let alone spelling it) but I know you get effects from these factors.

Good interesting project I really enjoy following it.

What next then  :poke: :poke: :poke:
