Muller Dynamo

[lumen]

I wonder what Latitude Romero lives at? Didn't he say he tried to run it on edge but it didn't work well?
Is it possible he lives around 45 degrees north and the Earths magnetic field plays into this somehow? Maybe it directs the Earths field through the cores for the added energy gain?
I guess if someone gets it working it could always be tested in a magnetic free environment.
Just something to think about for those building with a vertical rotation plane.

Hello Everyone,

I've never built a motor of any kind before, but I was so intrigued by the dynamo that Romero built, I feel I need to give it a go. I read the first few pages and the past dozen or so. Can anyone point me to the page where the parts list is. I'd appreciate the help.  Thanks.

I would need some ideas how to fix a bearing to the center of a Plexiglas disk:

Sometimes I see in nice builds (e.g. in Lasersaber's latest Muller Generator replication) that a bearing has been fitted to the middle of a disk.

I always have problems when I try this.

So, master builders, how does one fit a bearing to the center of a disk?

When I do it, the bearing always slips off eventually. In case a glue is used, which one?

Greetings, Conrad

One way to ensure a tight fit is to machine the ID of the plexi as close to the OD of your bearing as possible.  Then, slightly heat up the plexi using an oven but, do not get it hot enough to distort in any way.  I am thinking maybe 100-120 F.  Before heating the plexi, place your bearing in the freezer for a few hours.

The bearing should slide into the plexi fairly easily and when the bearing heats back to room temp. and the plexi drops to room temp. it should be a very tight fit indeed.  This way you are using the coefficient of expansion of the materials to your advantage.

Just an idea from stuff we used to do.

Crapola, as far as I know, there is no parts list per se. But there is a link on page 1 for pdf, detailed enough info for replication. Please read this whole thread as there is much info to be gleaned by doing so.
