Roll on the 20th June

[infringer]

Well think of kids back in my day at least there were girls who used to have beads on there bicycle spokes that would constantly hammer against the rim of the bicycle and they rode the same bicycle for serveral years what seems more of the issue was the ones who left there bicycle out in the rain...

This is simply an every day example ... I am sure there is far better examples indeed...

But at projects end we all know our durability will not be with hot glue...

Or by the way Mighty Putty this stuff is pure crap for those who wonder about this putty it is very poor and does not work as advertised...

Roll on 20th of June indeed roll on...

Surely once we see a working replication we can then work to design something much more durable! Automotive parts are rather durable and need to be to meet standards set forth thank god otherwise we'd be driving soap box cars down the street and get charged thousands of dollars for something that'll fall apart within months of usage not to mention the amount of accidents that would occur and casualties.

We are very close according to Archer Redriderno22 has the design down.

Clanzer!!!!

Beautiful man one can only imagine what kind of results we shall see with this...

The only differnce I see is that your rod is not as close to the center of gravity so the weight is being placed at a differnt spot on the arm so it just may not work or may have a differnt effect... As I think someone mentioned it need to be close to the axis which the rod need to be attached.

Much hope that your design works...

@ Clanzer:

What are you using for a bearing and what method are you using to mount it to the wheel?

Hi CH

For this one I have not gone for the usual low friction RC bearings and I am using some small 1/2" bearings that are press fitted into mounts.
These have two screw holes that fix it to the wheel and slides on a 6mm bolt nicely.

Here is a picture of a older wheel that shows the bearing better:



Cheers
