Armadillo Run forum

Hey all, i was messing around with nexferrets perpertual motion vehicle that he posted in the topic a few above this one. I was messing with it because i love testing the limits of things (that car of his takes down anything).

Anyway i thought it would be fun to completely dismantle the vehicle and hang one of the wheels by a string or so. What happened i think is pretty cool and i wanted ot share it.

It seems that the elastic is actually going around fast enough to almost serve as solid ground in a sense. I put an extra string in the middle of the wheel to prove that it does not fall down, you will notice that the string in the middle is never tightened.

awesome

thank you tomo, i was beggining to think everyone thought i was a moron LOL

That's... weird.

i think its just the elastic tightening up and loosing and also the outward force tightening. its just theory and its hard for me to explane.
