      Why are you spinning the top? Spin the glass, and the top should spin forever on it without stopping. I thought you'd do this, what with the gears around the edges of the glass.

    Maybe reducing the wobbliness of the top spinner structure could also reduce the energy loss? (and make the top more stable)

    • @BrickMachinesChannel

    • @Dyanosis
      @Dyanosis Рік тому +10

      All tops are inherently unstable when they start spinning. They self-stabilize thanks to the "gyroscopic effect". However you can't get rid of all the friction that is between the top and the surface it's spinning on. The only way to truly make it spin forever is to remove ALL resistance (air, ground, etc). Aka, spin it in a vacuum on no platform.

      ​@@Dyanosisand no electromagnetic effects that slow it down. Levitating something in a magnetic field will always cause induced currents. If the levitating part has no electric resistance it will still have these currents and will be a rotating magnet. So you have to make sure that nothing could pick up that magnetic field anywhere. Wait now it really looks impossible. Especially if you think of gravity this can cause all sorts of slowdown. I wouldn't recommend thinking about it for too long another mind will always come up with a thing that could disturb the rotation.

    If you can report the dimensions and alloy of the tops you’re using, I’m sure a kind materiel scientist in the comments can run a finite element analysis and tell you how fast the top can spin without exploding. I eagerly await the next version. *Inception theme music playing*

      ​@@BrickMachinesChannel The maximum speed the edge of a cylinder of a given material can rotate is equal to the square root of its specific tensile strength (tensile strength over density).
      A hard steel has a typical tensile strength of ~1000MPa and density of ~8,000 kg/m³. So the max edge speed is ~350m/s.
      Assuming a 4cm diameter => 0.126m circumference, then the max rotational speed is 2777 resolutions per second or 166,000 rpm.
      ... but for heavens sake, don't trust my numbers on the strength or density.

    I’m curious if something similar could be done with Euler’s disc, a disc specifically designed to spin for as long as possible

      I'll have to check out Euler's disk. That sounds really cool and could probably be used here too!

    You should attempt to make a series, where you make a whole working Minecraft house! Start with making furniture, then some working stuff, then make the floor, walls & ceiling! It would definitely get a bunch of content out there, and would be super fun!!!

    So it doesn’t spin forever… you just keep re spinning it, with legos. This is how I know I’m back in reality and not Inception.

    I feel like the times would be slightly longer if you started the timer RIGHT as the top was released, or to make an additional mechanism that does that for you?

    • @BrickMachinesChannel
      @BrickMachinesChannel  Рік тому

      Yeah I considered a mechanism that would do that, but I only needed the timer for approximate times, so I decided it was okay for the time being. Great suggestion!

    I'm curious if the hard tip wore a slight hole in the glass, as it seemed to be staying incredibly still a lot of the time without any amount of horizontal movement. I doubt it would affect the spin speed but I am curious.

    • @BrickMachinesChannel
      @BrickMachinesChannel  Рік тому

      I'm glad you asked that question because I was curious about the same thing during this build! As far as I can tell though, the glass didn't have any hole starting to be bored into it. There were a couple of scratches though, and I'm curious as to when that occurred!
