I hate this rain, I am still probably coming though.

punishr

This rain does suck, but I guess I will still come.

See you guys there.....

DrKillJoY

Well what can I say... 44 people (plus kids) and 31 cars when all said and done... you guys rock!

next month we will have our own "private" meeting room.. I promise!

RX4+30Years=RX8

That would be nice. Maybe I wouldn't have to move tables around. Not that I had any trouble doing it, but my doc says I am not supposed to lift more than 15 lbs. Now he didn't say I couldn't eat 15 lbs.:D

It was good meeting you and evryone else.

shelleys_man_06

This meeting was yesterday wasn't it? Nuts .

DrKillJoY

yes it was.. 1st tuesday of every month.

sorry charlie

yeah, last night was fun, it was nice to see everyone again. Now I just need a rotor....and the car to go with it.

Does anyone has a rotor piece that is broken I could have for my office, I'd like to have a rotor on my desk.

DrKillJoY

I have some extra housings.. but no rotors

RX4+30Years=RX8

I think it would be neat to have a rotor in a housing with an electric motor connected so that it would rotate in the housing sitting on the desk.

Humm, real rotor and housing would be pretty heavy, maybe if I could borrow a real rotor, housing and excentric shaft, I could create a template and make it out of wood with a small DC motor and put that on the desk.

RX4+30Years=RX8

Could you lay a ruler next to it and take a digital pic of it. I could then print that full size and use it for a template.

DrKillJoY

tell you what.. if you cut me in i will make sure you have all the engine parts needed to make it happen !

RX4+30Years=RX8

I can do that.

I was just thinking about it and if I reduced the scale to say 50%, I could make the housing fit on say a 8x11" paper and then make it out of hardwood. Something like Birdseye Maple would look really nice on a desk.

You might have to settle for a prototype. This could also get pretty time consuming as well. I have no access to a CNC machine so this will be hand made.

I also have another idea about using the excentric shaft to drive a second hand of a clock. Maybe later.

shelleys_man_06

Sorry I couldn't go. I was up the night before making a crib sheet for my circuits quiz, which I got a 100 on anyways. Bragging makes me feel like a big man :D. J/K everyone .

RX8_ML

i didn't go becuase my eyes were too poofy, i didn't want you guys thinking i was a rotary alien.. or something.. or just a plain alien.

shelleys_man_06

Poofy?

shelleys_man_06

Sorry ML about your stolen RX-8. Someone stole my boss' truck outside of work, in broad daylight, and it was Valentine's Day; he had just bought some presents for his wife, and some rat bastard ran off with his truck. That's why I don't even let people look at my car.

RX8_ML

wow, now that IS harsh... thats bad.

DrKillJoY

Yup, it's almost that time again.

Our next club meeting will be held at Fuddrucker's located at 3929 Southwest Freeway near Weslayan. (see map below) PLEASE let me know you are coming so we can setup the tables properly!

We will meet in the parking lot about 6:30PM and head inside for dinner about 7:15PM. Be sure to bring your attention and thinking caps for this one as we have some interesting club business to talk about.



See you there!

PS. If anyone has some orange cones, please contact me directly!

punishr

I will be there as usual.......
