PiCasso Design Challenge - Post 7 Part 2

dwinhold

Welcome back for the 2nd part of my 7th blog. This part is the motor turning the globe, proving the sewing maching motor works. The video below shows it working.

 

 

Thank you

  • Dalem very great progress! I like the sound of this motor when runs; you saved the memory of the sewing machine sound. It remembers ancient moments when I was a kid and this sound was frequently present in the homes of my school friends when the sewing machines during the 70s were always present in their homes; an effect on my memories like the Magdalena for Proust image

     

    By a technical point of vies, did you tried to run the motors as we can see in the video for a long time? Just to be sure that all the parts until this moment are reliable for the normal use? Sometimes, it is better to put a real full-stop to a certain point of a project before going ahead to avoid that issues will occur at a more advanced state of the development.

    Hi Enrico

    I did run the globe for 15 minutes non-stop at high speed. The only issue I found was a slight vibration. The cause is the globe ring isn't 100% balanced yet (which I knew before). I even ran the globe without the top bearing support and it ran fine, I wouldn't trust it for any long term running.

     

    The sewing machine sound brought back great memories of my mom always sewing as well.

    Hello Dale, I think that 15 minutes is already a good test. If nothing has broken, there are boog possibilities that it will rung for a very long period without problems.
