Bonus points if you use campy parts lol (campagnolo) vintage, I’m sure

Sometimes inspiration comes from the craziest places…

Wheres all my jimmy riggers at? Lets get together and make something happen

A 3000rpm 30" mower blade would put out 3824 RCF!

Have you tried this yet @Killa12345 @cyclopath ?

Dred_pirate · November 3, 2020, 5:06pm

My fuge spins @ 4000rpm. So that’s a pretty good number. 4000rpm is still considered low, too.

No lawnmowers when I get there

Fuck it ima strap it to my rims on my car and hit 120mph on the I-5

Anyway we can propel it with magnets? How fast can we get those going? A simple electric charge can create the polarity. How many stir bars think this would take?

Waxplug1 · November 3, 2020, 5:14pm

We can use compressed air
You wont be limited by a motor this way
Just need something to handle the rpm

Apothecary36 · November 3, 2020, 5:34pm

Yesssss

Waxplug1 · November 3, 2020, 5:35pm

Or mirrors and lasers

I was tossing this sort of idea around with my wife. I remember doing this same thing with a rollerblade wheel when I was a kid. My step dad saw this and got real panicked apparently air will turn it fast enough for the wheel to fly apart.

I can make this happen but i need someone to weld the bearings on a triclamp lid… @TwistedStill you got me?

@Indofab?

TwistedStill · November 3, 2020, 6:02pm

I could, but aren’t you is socal? @Soxhlet would be closer.

Do you have a tri clamp center port on that lid? Why not make tri clamp adapter that goes from 2" out to the 4 bolt bearing flange?

Waxplug1 · November 3, 2020, 6:05pm

That works too but it would be nice to have a triclamp bearing lid i can mount with hp clamps

Waxplug1 · November 3, 2020, 6:17pm

I need it here brother

And then use compressed air to propel the spin
Put one on top and bottom to balance it out

Future · November 3, 2020, 6:23pm

Maybe bolting a bearing on would be easier?

TwistedStill · November 3, 2020, 6:26pm

Yup…were talking about the same thing.

So…I could probably make a flange that would thread on to the NPT nipple and have the bearing/pillow block bolt pattern on the other side. No welding required. But, I’m not sure on how well the axial position would be maintained with that set up…but I’m also not sure that’s too critical here

My quick research is coming up with high torque low RPM air motors, has anyone found the opposite? Or high torque and high RPM?
