Discussion on Latest Counter Rotator Implementation for Clips/Connections

[clears throat and cough] >> All right, so this is uh four coils in series with one trigger strand in the in one coil. Look at that. That's awesome. And you can hear it rev [clears throat] up. I want to get that maglev in the middle, but it won't sit in the right spot. So, now I'm going to set it up and set up with four coils right now. I'm going to set it up with one coil because >> [clears throat] >> it has a unique um vibration uh when one of these magnets pass in front of the coil that is operating. Um it'll make a a deeper hum, a deeper noise. It's pretty neat. So, here, let me try this. You can kind of hear it with the the four. It's neat. I love it. >> [clears throat] >> Now, what I want to discuss uh somebody else who works on stuff like this has suggested that I incorporate the clips into the 3D print itself. And I've got an idea on how to do that. I just need to count exactly how many clips I need and if the idea will work. But, yeah, make make everything just a little bit bigger so you can fit a clip in there. Not like just thicker, you know? Make it thicker cuz if clip will already fit on there. It's just not thick enough to fit in there. You know what I mean? You know what we're doing what we're trying to do is we're trying to consolidate the space. We're trying to remove eye sores. I don't really care about the eye sores, but you know, a lot of people do. I don't want any of the wires to get caught up, so we're going to have uh embedded little little ditch in these arms. All right, so this this rotor here when it passes these magnets on the outside is pushing the outside down as it passes. You can see how it's pretty synced up. That's awesome. Hello, everybody. What's up? Yeah, I just Yeah, I definitely am going to be doing that. I'm going to make it so the wires can like tuck into these arms. Hopefully. Going to have to trim them up a little bit, but yeah, we're going to make it nice and consolidated. Or I'm going to make, you know, my my best attempt at doing that. And that's going to be like we'll see how it works. And maybe we'll have a cover that will go over some of them, like the sides, just to keep everything in. I think that is going to end up being important, but you know, it'll it'll fit nicely and once I trim up the wires and stuff. We can't have uh >> [clears throat] >> the clips flopping around, you know? They can't They can't be just out there like they are right now. They might get caught up on something. So, this is also one drive. That's what I'm going to call this thing. I'm going to call it the one drive because that's all it will ever take. It's all that's ever needed is one drive. This drive has four coils in it. One trigger, four coils. All right, that one didn't catch. All right, here we go. That sucks. I'm glad this thing is as sturdy as it uh sturdy as it is. Yeah, that was kind of hard for me to say. I don't know why. That's awesome. That is awesome. Nice and stable. Uh it'll start making noise. I'll have to turn it off. I don't know what's banging what, but something's banging. Not yet, but it's happened every time so far. >> [clears throat] >> Maybe it'll work itself out. Who knows? I heard a wire. And if I just hold this thing here, it'll rev up to like 2,000 you know, 2,300 RPMs. Maybe even faster. Uh that was with the one coil though. Hello, hello. How's everybody doing? Thank you. Thank you. Yeah, now the idea when I started this, I had great aspirations uh involving the OTC X1. Except that I was going to have these inside of the utrons. Going to have little motors like this inside of the utron um >> [clears throat] >> to you know, get the whole thing started. But then I found out that fitting all this inside of this and putting a cap on it was going to be more difficult than I thought. Might have to change up the plan a little bit, you know? Um maybe just start building it from what I know about it. All I know is that either way there's two ways to build it right now with 3D printing metal and machining. Either way is going to cost me over a thousand dollars to get started. So, the plan is to get six six-inch size utrons made of solid aluminum with maybe a hollow center. And then get trunnions. Virtually Let's see. But Uh what am I going to do to demonstrate this? I'm sure some people might already know what it is, but I think it's what what allows this thing to function, the OTC X1, as well as it did. It it turns the utrons to a 45° angle like this. You know, it tilts it like that and then you got one end pointing to the accumulator in the middle. And when these things get going, they get going really, really fast. I mean like fast. Like we don't even touch how fast they get going playing with this stuff. It doesn't even get close. But what I'm what I'm thinking happens at a certain speed is that there's a bubble that starts to form. Cuz you know, the Utrons would be all the way around the craft like all the way around six six slots filled with this stuff. So, every Star of David just chilling there. You look at it from above and you connect the dots, you can make a Star of David. And then in between you know, in between each Utron is an aluminum plate which is bent over like this to separate um eddy currents and whatever what else not. I believe you could actually push off of this in the same direction. You know, it it helps cuz they're C-shaped um electromagnets on the outside, 12 of them. So there's an off-on thing going with the the Utrons. The Utrons are supposed to charge and be driven by the C-shaped electromagnets with the laminated cores. Yes, the machining route is definitely what I'm planning on doing because the 3D printing, even if it was better, would cost five times as much to do. Money really is an issue, right? Uh-huh. You know I I can't stress enough how uh the way I do do things I reuse a lot of my stuff. You know, I I don't just go out and get new things for every experiment that I do. Um and I I I've sunk over 30 grand into this like all together. So, this this can really get obscene. In some cases, man. I mean, it's a hobby. I paint I've painted for 15 years more or more. And I have never spent that much money on paint. Ever. But I did a lot of stuff, man. I have like 4,000 500 videos of different things that I've done. Um towards the end, it's really been a lot of uh you know, stuff like this. So, you can say it's kind of the same thing. But I've built over 25 of these things now. You know, I've got different rotors all over the place. This one here is uh 120. It's got three drives. Um it's got a pickup system. It's got supercaps that are charging. And no, man. There's there's going to be a completely new genre of these things that does not require a load. But you know, like if we built a machine we can put a load on it. But this is a toy. You know? I could try attaching a fan on the top there. >> [laughter] >> But you know, honestly I I don't see the point. It removes from the satisfaction and enjoyment when you bog it down. Now, if I get a load on it without it slowing down like too much, then it would be more of a good idea. But I'm not I'm not doing this like maybe building the OTC-X1 replica. Um I'd go all out. You know, if I was going to like spend the money to get pieces machined um I would get a schematic or directions. And I would try and follow that. Um at least the skeletal structure and all the components to the T. Now, there are a few things that I might want to try myself. But um I like the nylon bolt holding the aluminum plate in place. Key, man. You can't put a steel bolt in there. That's going to screw everything up. Because because it's non-conductive. And and you put a and non um the mag the magnetism will get screwed up, too. But when you spin one of these really really fast, if you haven't noticed, this is half an Utron. The base right here. If you if you spin these really fast uh it's supposed to expand. And when you have six of them surrounding you and they're all expanding at the same time, you get what is considered a bubble. And then of course, you got the big Utron in the center which this could represent on a miniature level. That is collecting all the energy from the from the Utrons via And I was I was I asked a question. I said, you know, what if we use plastic and we make static um the engine the power to make this thing run, make it static instead of you know, eddy currents and uh magnetism. Use plastic or glass even, you know, acrylic, you know? Generate some static electricity. And you know, I I think about it more and more and it's like, nah, you should probably just stick with the with what works, you know? Um but that would have been a lot cheaper to have it be viable. Maybe there is a way to make it viable. I'm not sure. Yeah, the machining is way it doesn't have that three 03 mm tolerance. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, so I just I definitely wanted to update um on what I'd be doing with the clips. So, they're not just going to be hanging there glued to the side. They might be glued in there um in some places cuz there's no screws to screw them in. But I'm going to make a place for them in the side of the machine. So, I would just take this and I would glue it like or see this one would might give you trouble. You know, I'd glue it like this. But you know, just make little spaces for the clips to go and then they would be a lot less of an eyesore and they wouldn't, you know, be it's it's safety. You know, you can't just have these things flopping in the wind and I've done it twice already or like three times. Wow, dude. It's got like a really mellow power resonance. You know, it's like it's more a lot more mellow with the four coils. The power supply is two 12-V batteries in parallel. I think that's why I'm having trouble um adding the second transistor onto here and having it be two drives is because the batteries the way I've hooked them together in parallel. I'm not sure if that's what the reason is, but you know, there's somewhere along the line uh they're crossing each other. The circuits up here. I've got two. You can see that there's two completed circuits with one transistor because it would uh resonate very loudly with the second transistor in there. That's why I'm starting to call these things one drive because I don't know. It's like every time I try to get two or more drives going I get that loud hum. But when I reduce it to one drive, it works fine. It works better than it would work with two, actually. There's just less torque. It's a lot more manageable. I mean, it just it gets where it's going so much faster with two drives, though. But the maximum right now is 12 volts, so it's not going to get any more than that. Sure, you can call it the flux capacitor. It's definitely not the flux capacitor, though. It is I don't know what I want to call it. One drive. But it's like uh I don't know. I'm not sure if this is right. A cyclotron? You can see it's pushing the Utron down. That's so neat. All right. And this will get ripping. I don't want it to go super duper fast, though. Oh, well. All right. Yeah, that's so cool. Hell yeah. Now when I you get the one Maybe we'll set that up real quick. I'll set it up. Cuz all I have to do is unplug the three coils and then plug the butt end of the drive coil into the slot that the fourth coil goes in. So easy. All right. All right, let me just make sure that's that's going to work. Yeah, I think we're good. Um Let me just All right. It must have gotten something that stopped. That's all right. Mhm. Make sure that's plugged in. Mhm. Oh, yeah, that's hot. My stuff doesn't usually get hot unless it's what you just saw right there, like uh magnetically It's a permanent electromagnetism. Means the transistor's blown. And that's okay. That's all right. It's cool. I just wanted to update you guys that uh I'm going to clean it up and get it ready to put on the shelf or something, whatever I'm going to do with it. All right. Thank you very much. Peace out. Have a wonderful night. This was a short one tonight. All right. Peace out.
