When I first started on the generator today things weren't looking so good and I almost thought that I would have to admit defeat.
However after testing different configurations/positions things are looking great (promising results).
I'm not absolutly 100% sure if I'm reaching full speed yet but what does happen is once I hit the power switch.......
1st: It tries to spin but does not!
2nd: I put my finger on the pulley or flywheel and aid the spin to get it going.
3rd: Once its going (slow start off) it starts spinning faster and faster.
4th: It continues to gain more and more speed.
5th: After reaching high RPM's it starts to vibrate heavily but no longer shakes since I've mounted it down to a wooden board.
Now the wooden board floats away on vibration.
Personal thoughts ("I wonder if the board running away on vibration has anything to do with zero or center gravity if it does then how can I use such a force and for what purpose").
Anyway I'll now have to mount the board down to something to stop it from running off. After that I'll be able to focus on more testing.
Like any other projects I become involved in, the tougher the job gets the easier succeeding in any project becomes as I become more and more creative until success is reached
