These rotors look really odd but what happens if they support an object and roll on a flat surface? Let's build some, find out and explain how they work.

Another great video F-J! I love the maths of this one and also the challenger reference, I’ve never heard that before but it does make a lot of sense. Well done Barry for all his help in your wonderful videos, a chip of the old block for sure. 😎❤️👍

Thanks and great to hear from you! Yes, this was an interesting one to make. The Challenger connection is facinating - I think I forgot to make it clear that the issue with the SRBs caused a flame front to leak out burning out the O rings but I guess that was obvious! I think it is a great bit of maths too! Must do solids of constant width at some stage. Working on a few maths based ones at the moment which I think you will enjoy. Hope to get them sorted soon!

Thanks Jakob. Guess you mean my son rather than me!

What a great video, I think putting different shaped ones on the same chassis makes it much more interesting, you haven't quite got square gears out of your system have you🤣 Tony J

Thanks! Glad you liked it! Yes, my thoughts go in phases and it's gears etc. at the moment. Now, here is an interesting idea that I have not seen done before: what I want to do is put a belt all the way round it so it becomes a level but odd shaped rotor caterpillar track. I think that would be fun and very counter intuitive! Sounds like something Colin Firze would build (with a massive engine on it!).
