“Tony Starks built it in a cave! … with a box of scraps!”
Big Hey! to everybody following, as I creep progressively toward the rendering of my dreams!
As a major attraction to the GreenHouse portion of the Course Of Act Movie Project, I ordered designs to a unique and truly revolutionary motor that will add to the ‘green’ theme of the Studio.
This reinvented motor was devised under the physics principles presented by Nicola Tesla. It is a ‘cold running’ unit that operates on Pulse Directed Current rather than traditional AC or DC currents. Called, the Keppe Motor, it is designed by a Norberto R. Keppe, of the STOP The Destruction of the World Association, and plans for it can be obtained thru this website:
http://www.keppemotor.comI ordered the instructions just as soon as they recently were made available, and went out shopping for crucial parts. I ended up spending a half day cruising from town to town, in and out of different electrical and hobby shops just to get disappointed by finding out that many of the critical items would most likely need to be special ordered! =(
I just couldn’t sit on my hands and wait for certain pieces to be delivered .. so, being the ambitious type of guy I am, I took to rummaging around my own dwelling for components that I could craft as substitutes for the needed parts!
I raided the kids’ toys to find parts for the frame, and I built a homemade reed switch out of odds and ends I found in the cracks of the kitchen drawers (integral to this model motor’s design)! I stripped some old speaker wire down to individual strands that I spray coated for insulation to isolate the current and found a few ferrite magnets from an old project I designed. Then, hot glued everything to the back of an old plumbing reference book!
I was able to improvise enough to build this mockup engine that I actually got to function!
I’ll be sure to order actual items on the parts list to create a better functioning unit later; I’m still studying the principles presented in this demonstrative design - and STOP Assoc. is actively seeking submitted modifications to the Keppe Motor that lead to improvements to its operation.
One great thing about My Course of Act Movie Project, for Me, is - any productive activity I do adds to the overall value of the project because ~~~ It’s All My Dream!
Won’t you come join me?
p.s.
(Though I am real in every way, Tony Starks is a Stan Lee Character out of the IronMan series! .. just in case you didn’t get to see the movie; great purchase! Get at it…)
