    I admire the quality of craftsmanship and detail nearly as much as the whole idea of a jet cart.
    Having a workshop with all the fabrication tools, the materials to build from, dreams and ideas. Looks like a recipe for a whole lot of fun!

    It would take NASA engineers 3 years and 50 million dollars to come up with this because they would do it all on paper 50 times before building it. Only to find it doesn't work. This man made a thing and then found what it needed and made it better, many times over. This is how it should be.

    • @Andrew-13579
      @Andrew-13579 2 года назад +1

      10 years and $500 million! 10 engineers to design it. 150 employees (3 in each state) to build it. And 40 managers to have teleconferences every day looking at the ‘dashboard’ on their computers to make sure it’s all conforming to the mission statement. Before they could fire it up, there would be a 3 year-long environmental assessment that would then determine it’s unacceptably harmful to microscopic brine shrimp and the whole thing cancelled.

    So is it just the brake disks keeping those rear axles in place horizontally? Guessing that must be a lot of sideways stress on the disks when turning. Do the axles just slide out of the frame & bearings, if the brakes weren't there?

    Yea, Aluminum is the best option really thermal friendly. I wondered if you needed some fins on the heat shield but it looks like the required footprint is so large it difuses the heat without much of a need for additional engineering. I suspect that engine will produce enough speed to be dangerous so the stout frame is good. Excellent engineering.

    Hey Bob, are those engines out of mild steel or blasted stainless? When I was working for Gene Gluhareff, all of our G8-2s were 321SS. What is your experience on the longevity of 304SS? Does 321SS actually last any longer when cycled? I see a lot of pulse jets being built out of mild steel and figure they can't last too long.

    This is so cool; I'm amazed that, although there are obviously many refinements and a lot of trials and error, the fundamentals are fairly simple - it's knowing how much of what, when, or so it seems.
    Have you tried different bell shapes for the exhausts, or would that make no appreciable difference?
