They fired up the engine.\u00a0 The spinning tires transferred controlled rotational motion in either speed or torque requirements up to 16 different rotation output points.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">On these points large metal adapter attachments and equipment were added to it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">They hooked up a mini metal shredder on one side and on the other a side a cement mixer contraption.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">They started the engine and as the vehicle drove stationary the contraptions on the sides started performing their functions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Bander shares out loud another idea that came to him.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u201ca fkn washing machine also, we can modify one of these so you can run a rinse cycle using your car if you felt like it, just gotta jerry rig something up on this rotations connecting adapter piece and bam!\u00a0 get our fkn clothes done in a pinch while in the front lines\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Behind the scenes someone shouted to another to bring out a busted washer dryer set they salvaged from the dumps.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">On another wheel corner of the platform, they were already testing out a makeshift conveyor belt. \u00a0It was successful.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Another person finished their project and added their attachment that turned the wheel spin and torque into a water pump, to help with the waterjet cutter.<br \/>An hour later, another guy was successful in using the platform as an air compressor using the wheel transfer to the rollers, a makeshift vane engine, an old propane tank and a quad turbo charger system off a wrecked high end BMW.\u00a0 <br \/>This would help dramatically with their many air compressed tools and air-powered shooters.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The makeshift Demming industrial platform could be used to wind up rope and cables.\u00a0 On the inside of this platform, there were car generators that transferred the power from the spinning on the inside 8 points to recycle this energy into battery generators while in use.\u00a0 Power at the ready for the general electric tools and equipment and welding machines and flood lights and what nots.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The idea was turning an everyday vehicle\u2019s engine power into multiple mechanical and versatile uses to meet local household, hobby shop, and even industrial hardware needs.\u00a0 Turning practically any car into a miniature industrial factory power source.\u00a0 Just a few of these at any worksite would substantially increase productivity and cut on physical heavy labor time.\u00a0 The best kind of efficiencies.\u00a0 It would also be portable.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Bander was observant of potential problems and insisted that everybody double down on safety issues.\u00a0 <br \/>&#8220;Sudden resistance on the roller side or a slip on the gas the wrong way could potentially make the vehicle jump out of place, and that would be no fkn boa and a bad fkn day for everyone.\u00a0 This is a problem that needs a priority solution from somebody somewhere pronto.\u00a0 The fkn car can&#8217;t ever jump off, and if it does, there needs to be a redundancy for that scenario as well.\u00a0 This sht needs to be safe and accessible and easy to use.\u00a0 Also, anybody got a more efficient build design yet?\u00a0 There&#8217;s gotta be at least 2 other ways of building this slightly different to make it faster to set up.\u00a0 Either way, in needs at least a two stages of safety controls.\u00a0 The most important part of a car is not the engine, it&#8217;s them volvo seatbelts and Daimler brakes.\u00a0 The platform needs this same kind of mentality, we got heavy equipment on deck, these fkn contraptions require failsafes and respect&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The right people were all over it.<br \/>The people wanted to know what they were going to call this instant wheel transmission frame (iWTF).<br \/>The demming mang told them he didn&#8217;t know yet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Bander went back to Distrito 9 and worked for three days straight on advancing the concept further in conjunction with others.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Rested for two days.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Then Mosa showed up.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ARCH 3.3 \u201c\u2026who\u2019s gun\u2019 run this town tonight\u2026\u201d 31 Dec 2019, Party O\u2019 Clock Povoado, Favela Brasilia, Brazil Party plans tonight at the poblado spot for Pagpag and Bander.
