As of January 19th, 2014 – We are one step closer to completing the Overidon Entropic Absorption Generator prototype.
The 3D printing process for the prototype vanes and support mechanism has been difficult. One problem was that the vanes kept falling off during the 3D printing process.
To rectify this problem, we are going to increase the size of the central vane support and then add the vanes later.
The vane support 1.1 will have holes for the vanes. Also of course the final product will be made out of metal, not white plastic. The white plastic is just being used as a low-cost system for early models of the device.
In the video below you will see two of the six pieces of the OEAG core.
1. The metal piece is the LOW-FRICTION yet HIGH-TORQUE rotation apparatus.
2. The white plastic piece is the vane support.
