Louis Luu Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 (edited) Will be doing this for fun. Probably end up printing this in steel now that I figured out how to smooth out the edge and hollow out the interior.

Louis Luu Posted May 23, 2022 Author Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) The secondary project will be to mount this heat engine and turn into a Rocket fan. I will need to redraw the ring to accommodate the exhaust and mount a butane tank to the base. Edited May 23, 2022 by Louis Luu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel OToole Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) Is this fan going to oscillate? Edited June 10, 2022 by Daniel OToole Spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Luu Posted October 2, 2022 Author Share Posted October 2, 2022 Project is finalized. The base can be used for both the 8 inch and 12 inch. The 8 inch is a non-oscillator. The 12 inch is a oscillator type. I've included area for mounting new switch and speed regulator on the base plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Luu Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 Getting ready to print this next for my stirling engine rocket fan. The back end has been modified for the burner. The base will hold the fuel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
